![]() ![]() I'm guessing there was an undetectable error in the original mechanical HD that corrupted data written or read.īTW: MUST have for older systems or any system. Ever since then, I no longer have issues with Win7. I just migrated all my main boot drive and data to a new Samsung EVO 860 1TB HD. Been around PC's since the 80's and could not fix Winblows, no matter what I did. Ubuntu ran fine, even for days at a time. I myself was having issues with Win7 just freezing randomly, no BSOD, just locking up. I have a dual boot system, Windows 7 pro 64bit and Ubuntu. ![]() I also have an older system that is giving me a 60FPS running latest Open Beta DCS World in Win7 at medium settings. Therefore, some of the remaining use-cases for GPU Passthrough can't be used in VMs. But, many multiplayer games that won't work in Wine/Proton because of "anti-cheat" software will also ban players for using VMs. Today, GPU Passthrough would still be useful for games that won't work in Wine/Proton. ![]() I can't offer data, but my firm opinion is that Proton/Wine/SteamPlay replaced much of the incentive to do GPU Passthrough, which was used almost entirely for games. Nevertheless, two years ago, GPU Passthrough was popular, and getting more so. These factors mean that only a minority of Linux users do GPU Passthrough. It's not practical on laptops most of the time. It also requires two GPUs, two video cables, and motherboard firmware that supports IOMMU. It's moderately complex and requires some level of comfort working on Linux internals. There are many guides how to do GPU Passthrough, for example this one. This process is called "GPU Passthrough", or generically and originally, "VFIO". All while you still have your other video card displaying the host Linux. Then you plug the output of that video card into a monitor, and the display will be from the VM only. The answer is to have a separate PCIe video card and "pass in" that PCIe slot to the VM, thus giving a VM a real hardware video card. So the short answer is that VMs have no graphical acceleration, so modern graphical games, at least 3D games, are too slow to be usable. I read that it's not so simple for virtual machines to run games that demand, mainly because of video settings, but I thought maybe someone already tryed and can share his/her experiences. (Yup! It's not the best setup you've ever seen, but it suits perfectly to my own needs.) MotherBoard: Asrock Killer SLI x370 Processor: AMD Ryzen 5 3600 but the bsod are getting more and more consistent and I was wondering what would happen if I create a virtual machine, install Windows10 there and play the games I wouldn't be able to play on linux (yet.) particularly Apex Legends and Sea of Thieves (from gamepass) Thing is, I did dual boot because not 100% of the games I play are available on Linux, so you know the deal. I'm now running Pop_Os! and it works just flawlessly, everything is great, I can play, I can work, I can do anything without getting bsod from just browsing the web :) Yes, I checked drives, memory, drivers, and nothing is doing the job, Windows keeps crashing randomly and I'm getting tired of it since Linux is working perfectly. Since I updated my hardware (I'll specify it later) I constantly started getting bsod on Windows which turned really tedious, but pushed me to finally try Linux which I wanted to do since forever but never did because of games.
