I would expect better luck with virtio drivers. Either way, if it was working before and not working in Win10 it’s likely related to drivers. Can you make sure you try latest drivers? Can you pinpoint the blue screen…to perhaps USB or other subsystem? Might be worth trying on clean Win10 install just to rule out upgrade issues (I didn’t understand whether you cloned the old VM and just reinstalled blue iris or reinstalled everything) , and if it still reproduces it is likely some low level incompatibility in QEMU/KVM. You would likely have to try experiment with qemu cmdline or use latest qemu and check the qemu mailing list Thanks, michal

Both an upgrade and a fresh install cause a blue screen. How do I pin point the blue screen? I’m guessing it’s a QEMU issue with Win 10. I’m on Fed 22, how do I get a newer QEMU than what’s in the distribution? or should I just upgrade to Fedora 24?
