Impossible to install Windows VMs on 4.4.1

Hi, I'm having problem after I upgraded to 4.4.1 with Windows machines. The installation sees no disk. Even IDE disk doesn't get detected and installation won't move forward no matter what driver i use for the disk. Any one else having this issue?. Regards, Facundo

just need to load the extra drivers, in virt viewer; 1. boot windows installer 2. proceed installer until you see the windows with no disks present 3. in virt-viewer swap the cd for the ovirt windows add-ons, this iso has changed names a few times... 4. load the driver from the iso 5. refresh disks 6. virtual disk will appear ready for windows to use.

I know 4.4.1 had a new windows driver iso... so you need to make sure you're using that newer one. On 27/08/2020 20:18, Michael Jones wrote:

I installed the ones from the repo and even downloaded the latest ones from Fedora repos. On Thu, Aug 27, 2020 at 4:20 PM Michael Jones <mj@mikejonesey.co.uk> wrote:

Hi Michael, try that but doesn't work. Not even on IDE disks. The installer keep requesting drivers and no disk shows up. Regards, Facundo On Thu, Aug 27, 2020 at 4:18 PM Michael Jones <mj@mikejonesey.co.uk> wrote:
