Hi there,

 

I am trying to create a Windows 10/11 VM in the CE and while I try to boot the VM it never goes ahead of the press F2 to boot into EFI boot manager, I would appreciate your support with my issue

 

Thanks :)

Some systems have difficulties with the uefi virtual machines. What you can try is to passthrough the cpu to the virtual machine with : acli vm.update <vm_name> cpu_passthrough=true

Is that still not working then create the virtual

machine with bios instead of uefi.
