Make sure you have enough RAM. Min 2 GB but I'd go with 4 GB until upgrades are done. You can lower it back afterwards. And disk space. 7 GB initial install can balloon to 30 GB during upgrade process before settling in around 20 GB. > > This is a longstanding Windows problem: > > https://superuser.com/questions/951960/windows-7-sp1-windows-update-stuck-checking-for-updates > > Fixed!

[qubes-users] Qubes Windows 7 HVM & Windows update
Hi there, I have attempted several installations of Windows-7 in a HVM (32 or 64 bits, with or without Qubes Windows tools for the 64-bit version...) and it "basically works", which means that Windows starts, I can use the explorer, I have Internet access, etc. BUT, on *ALL* installations I attempted, Windows cannot use "Windows Update" : When starting Windows update, the Win7 VM will stay at the "Checking for updates" phase forever, without any visible progress, until the VM eventually crashes. Is there something that I missed, does anybody have a clue ? TIA, kind regards. ॐ -- Swâmi Petaramesh PGP 9076E32E -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
