What's the host OS?

I enjoy Windows 8.1 (virtio/qxl) on CentOS 7.2 laptop (the one I'm
writing now on).


CentOS 6.7. Sorry I forgot to mention that.

As I said, Windows 7 runs just fine in a couple of VMs.

One thing I haven't tried is removing the virtio drivers that got
carried over in the Windows 7 -> 10 upgrade. I haven't found any
virtio drivers labeled for use with Windows 10. (How the heck you
uninstall a driver that's no longer associated with any device is
going to take a bit of searching.)



You can use the virtio drivers for Windows 8.1

Perhaps I'll give that a try, but eliminating the virtio drivers by
switching back to IDE disks, uninstalling the balloon driver, etc.,
didn't improve things at all.

I had some problems initially with Windows Update, but that's
resolved now, and everything else seems to work. But, with a
1024x768 screen and no mouse, there's not much you can do with it
besides saying, "See, it runs!"
