Anyone who gave thumbs down possibly doesn't quite realize the implications of Windows 10 running in a virtual machine with x86 support on an ARM64 single board computer (perfectly or otherwise). This is mind-blowing! Well done, Don.

After some fiddling, it was indeed possible to get the Network Adapter working. You will need to install the Windows Kernel Debugger Network Driver, and some manual commands. I had some issues, but resolved after disabling Local Area Connection* and just use that Debugger Adaptor. Works also after reboots, so thats pretty awesome.

Just an FYI, the reason that you can run 32bit and not 64bit on this is because when an intel porcessor processor is switched into long mode or native 64bit mode, its not backward compatable with 32bit protected mode. So windows has to emulate 32bit mode (WoW64 Winodows on Windows 64bit) to run 32bit apps. Compiling the OS to support ARM uses the same source tree and has brought that emulation layer over. Bascially an emulator in a VM. It's not that difficult to port the OS over to other processors, (if you look back in history we had support for, DEC ALPHA, IBM Power PC, MIPS and Itanium), it was desgined that way. The difficult part is mainly driver support as thats in the realm of the hardware vendors to produce binaries for the kernel for specific arch's. Great Vid!! Very cool.

Now time to run Arch Linux on ARM on Esxi on ARM on Windows on Arch on WSL2 ;)

it’s not about why

Has anyone managed the ethernet workaround? would love to try but wired internet is a must

Where i can get the Windows Server 2019 iso for ARM ?

[hermannpaschulke]

I tried this with KVM, which worked fine for Linux ARM ISOs, but I couldn't find a bootable Win 10 ARM iso.

Please, can you share the esxi 7.0 cd image on Google Drive, since the new version has a bug and the console does not work when you install a virtual machine. Thank you.

[kampfkleckstv]

Hi, nice video! And really cool. But could you do a video about the installation, please? Because I get a blackscreen after the succeded setup thing. :(

[flyingcow]

Good that esxi is now able to run windows on arm

[jorgedeandrade]

Amazing tutorial, but I have a problem with Windows VM's not recognize network adapter, do you have this problem? How to fix it?

[syahrialagniprasetya]

How do you manage to get a network? Did you install vmware tools for windows arm64?

[pav]

Cool Video! But where do I get the ISO from? Is it the windows insider thing?

[Manyrius]

amazing video thx only one question if possible : how did installed network drivers in windows on arm ? i can t find the way to show network to virtual machine, can u link how :) thx

[mohitpannu]

can we install windows server 2019 in esxi arm fling, i tried to download from uupdump but still yet, i'm not able to download that, error : 'no languages are available there'

[aaroncarrillo]

hi can you please make a tutorial to get a RB pi4 cluster and install vmware on it

[donatoaz]

I have a Samsung 840 SSD (256gb) that just won't get picked up by esxi. Is there a special driver that needs to be added or some special configuration required? Could you make a video on that if that is so?

[agnesbooks]

thanks much for the video... why do i get start ipx over ipv4 while following the procedure? i am trying with this iso:

[techhorizon]

Great video👍🏻 Probably gonna try it myself 😁
