Guys, please help me. When I try to install windows11 on my proxmox which is on virtualbox, I wait couple minutes when it says installing some components and when the installation is done my vm freezes and server crash. I tried bunch of different iso images but none of them work correctly. Does anybody have solution to this?

I tried some of iso images on photo, not all but the majority of them.

Is it just Windows 11 or any (linux/windows) OS?
And did you enable nested virtualization? Since without it, it will never work.

Edit:
For nested virtualization on virtualbox see: https://docs.oracle.com/en/virtualization/virtualbox/6.0/admin/nested-virt.html

I enabled it in virtualbox. And yes, it's only happening on win11.

+ Down in tasks it shows me this...

If proxmox is crashing its using too much memory. Reduce the memory perhaps.

Also, try setting Processor type to x86-64-v2-AES on the windows 11 virtual machine.

You mean to reduce memory on vm in proxmox? I set it to 6144
