Hi,

for a few months i used Proxmox on a Consumer PC (MSI mainboard with i9 12900k). Now i want to upgrade to a real server hardware (Lenovo SR630 V3, Pentium Gold 6526Y).

First i moved some LXC Containers and a Linux VM to the new PC without any issues. I did a backup on the old PC to a proxmox backup server and restored it on the new one.

The next VM to move is a Windows 11 pro. I tried the same way but after restore the Windows was very slow and the CPU load was about 30%. CPU type is set to "host". Now i tried to reinstall the virt IO driver / ballooning etc. But nothing changed. To prove i changed vom CPU type host to QEMU64 and the load was 10% then. The next change was to x86-64-v2-AES. Now the CPU load was 3-5% but x86-64-v2-AES is not very performant.

Is there anything i can do to run this Windows 11 on CPU type "host" or do i have to install it new from scratch?

My proxmox version is 8.4.16.


Kind regards

Jochen
