Proxmox VE 6.3-2 compatibility with VirtIO drivers?

[Kyran Storm]

Im running VE 6.3-2 as a hypervisor on Debian 10 (for reference)

Heres my situation. I use Virtualizor to provision Virtual Machines when orders are made on my WHMCS website. I have used Virtualizor provided windows templates, but my clients have had some issues with them (fixable issues) but, I want to make my own. According to their guide, they suggest using Virtio as the storage driver and the Storage medium (not sata, scsi, ide, etc). The problem im having, is that after loading the viostor driver (as I was instructed to do) on the windows paritioning menu, It pops up saying that windows can't be installed to the disk. I have attached relevant screenshots for this. Their support staff has told me that they have made templates from ISO using VirtIO storage mediums on their KVM environment (not proxmox), and suggest that its a proxmox issue..

Its a windows issue... windows does not come with virtio drivers.

Download the driverse here https://fedorapeople.org/groups/virt/virtio-win/direct-downloads/stable-virtio/virtio-win.iso

Add a disk drive with the iso and install it via load driver at the disk screen

Right, if you read the post, I say i loaded the virtio driver. I already know all of that. But it just doesnt work

Seems like I skipped that part.

Please post a screenshot of the vm hardware window.

I would recommend using virtio iscsi (vioscsi) instead of virtio block (viostor)
