Like you suggested in my other post, I removed my PCI-e adapter for the m.2 ssd, and what is weird is that those COMRESET errors just doubled. Instead of it being just ATA10, it is also giving duplicate errors for ATA9 as well. But it does not seem to affect functionality just yet.

I got a Windows 7 HVM to work all the way to the desktop, but I did not install QWT on it just yet. What held me back was that I really wanted to be able to install Windows 7 on a separate, faster hard drive. So on my 2nd Win7 HVM, I passed through the SATA controller on my mobo that has 2 SATA ports to it, and connected an SSD to that SATA controller. After a while of fumbling with connecting USB sticks (blocks) which contain drivers for the SATA controller to my Windows 7 hvm before installation, I just edited the Windows 7 iso and put the drivers in that, and then tried to install Windows 7 again. Unfortunately, when I loaded the drivers in the Windows 7 installation, it crashed the installation. I don't know if that is because of the SeaBIOs that I keep seeing or something else. Is there any resource I should look at for installing a Windows 7 HVM on a separate hard drive for speed?

Thanks, I will keep this in mind. ~MAD -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
