Hello,

I have an odd problem.

I have updated one of the nodes in my cluster to Proxmox 1.9 from Proxmox 1.8

I cannot get any of my Windows 2003 servers to boot using the Virtio drivers. The just hang on the splash screen logo.

Downgrading them to IDE works - but then as soon as I logon, the mouse stops working.

Another sympton is that the network does not work either!

My first thought was that this is driver related (virtio) however after installing a 'fresh' windows machine - with the same drivers - it all works!

Anyone know of any issues or fixes for this? I have allot of win boxes and dont fancy being stuck on Proxmox 1.8 :-)

you need to update the virtio drivers inside windows prior updating to 1.9.
 
Yes... Unfortunately I already tried this admit did not work :(

Any preferred driver version?

Maybe just the ones I am using!
