Yes we do not plan on offering hypervm, cartwright118 have you looked at Proxmox for running Windows, the user interface is okay with it so you would not need to worry about command line.

Wow, thank you!

Does anyone know of another control panel i could use for managing XEN?

I managed to install XEN by using the reinstallation feature in my manager So now i have Debian with XEN installed lol. I need to try and install HyperVM now, so i can control the virtual machines via my browser. Its very stressful not knowing how to use linux at all.

I followed a HyperVM tutorial step by step and it was going all good, but then when it asked me to put 'setenforce 0' it said incorrect command. Of course me not knowing linux, i didnt even know where to start looking for help lol.

SO yeah, stuck again

I know it works with Proxmox / XEN / QEMU (I'm using Win7 RC1). So instead of installing directly onto your server, you could take that route.

If Windows is all you'd like to use, simply allocate all available resources (HD, CPU, Memory) to a single XEN KVM; the performance hit of running it virtualised would then be minimal (in fact, I'm running Win7 with a bunch of other Linux containers and it's smooth as silk - so it really isn't that bad as some may say).

Hello Myatu,

Thank's for the suggestion and it sounds like a really good one, but my only problem with that would be I don't know the first thing about command line linux! So that would be an issue for me lol.

Thank you,
Regards. Chris.

I am not sure if you have seen this topic, but some customers did try it and I think a few had some success, http://forum.ovh.co.uk/showthread.php?t=1435

I tried this myself, managed to get to the blue installation screen but then something failed (can't remember what exactly it was a while ago). The original installation cd didn't boot right either and went directly to linux, but when I nLited the cd to 200MB it worked People have tried this, many times, so asking here for help won't work as no one was successful.

Hi,

I was just wondering if anyone else was successful, as the posts i've seen were a few months back. Not everyone posts if they are successful in doing something, thank you.

Hi guys,

I'm sure by now you have seen people trying to load windows via vKVM on the dedicated box. Well i can say I've tried this evening and failed - It doesnt even load up the Windows Server 2003 setup screen. I use vKVM and log into VNC, it eventually loads up the iso file after about 15 minutes or so. States at the top 'loaded successfully' (or something simular) pops up asking to allow some java thing, but then carries on to boot into Linux. No sign of the windows setup screen

Does any one have any ideas for me to try? I only ordered the box today, so i have a few weeks left to get it working!

Thanks alot,
Regards.
Chris
