Windows 10, no network card (machine q35)

[Bytechanger]

Hi,

I´m new on proxmox. I tried to install windows 10 on my machine.
It works fine, but I get no network card.
I set it to virtIO (paravirtualized) and install wirtio-win-0.1.215 dirver.
In manager there is Red Hat VirtIO Ethernet Adapter with an error.
I tried to remove it and install driver again with no succsess...

hi,

how did you install the driver? after installing windows you have to go into the attached virtio CD and run the installer from there (see screenshot)

can you show us?

yes, this was my way




This is the error...

 

[oguz]

could you also try with older virtio driver versions?

and just in case please post your VM configuration: qm config VMID

ah yes the classic german iso...

 

[Bytechanger]

OK, 5.1 did the job.
6.0 doesn´t work!

Crazy

Second question, why my windows says Processor: Common KVM prpcessor 792 MHz?
Host is : 6 x Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-8500T CPU @ 2.10GHz (1 Socket)

??

that's the default processor model for VMs. you can change it on the GUI (VM -> Hardware -> Processor -> Type)

select type "host" if you want the host cpu model

 

[Bytechanger]

Oh, thanks, that works.

Now it shows Intel(R) Core(TM) i-8500T CPU @2.10GHz 792 MHz.

Why 792MHz? When I try to upgrade to win 11 it says, its to slow...

But i-8500T should work.

the issue should be resolved with qemu 7.2 ( pve 7.3-6 )

can you confirm ?

 

[Swfty]

Hi RolandK,

I have just changed the config of an already installed VM, and it did not work. (pc-q35-7.2)
Maybe if you try to install the VM...

[RolandK]

what does "dpkg --list|grep pve-qemu-kvm" show ?

 

[Swfty]

ii pve-qemu-kvm 7.2.0-7 amd64 Full virtualization on x86 hardware

 

[RolandK]

what happens if you remove the network adapter(s) and re-add ?

 

[Swfty]

Same thing... Code: 56

 

[RolandK]

interesting.
can you post you VM configuration file? (including the original config version/string) ?

I don't know if it's related, but I experience the same thing as in this setup: https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/windows-10-vm-so-slow-when-cpu-type-is-host.123186/
If I use "host" CPU then this VM becomes extremely slow....

If it helps, I can give you this installed VM...
