Hi Gal,
I have downloaded the virtio-win_x86.vfd and uploaded to ISO domain. Used Run Once and attached the floppy drive, while looking for drivers in A drive it gives below error: I followed all the steps as per the guidelines shared in the document. Don’t know what I am missing.

Right now what I am doing is: Installed Windows 2016 using IDE interface, but performance is very bad and it’ really hard to install any further .exe into it. I never used the IDE interface so I can't say from personal experience, but I don't think that should be the behavior, please open a bug on that so that we can examin. Other option I see attaching the floppy drive when we use “Run Once”, but problem is when pointing to floppy drive while loading drivers. It says no drivers detected. Using Run Once is the preferred option, see https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_virtualization/4.3/html/virtual_machine_management_guide/chap-installing_windows_virtual_machines Make sure that you attach the latest virtio-win vdf (the link I sent earlier should be ok) and select the relevant drivers, if there is a problem then please open a bug on virtio-win project and send me the url so I will track it, thanks. Please share let me know the best way to perform this action as need to deliver the Ovirt infra to one of my customer and really stuck on this driver installation. Appreciate your quick response.!!

This installer should replace the ovirt-wgt that we have currently on the next versions, and it is new, so please give us feedback once you used it. P.S the installer installs the drivers normally so if the regular drivers from virtio-win fail to install, then using the installer will not change much probably, and it means that you have a deeper problem. In case the installation fails then please generate logs but running the installer through cmd.exe "msiexec /i {installer} /l*v {path to log}" (https://www.advancedinstaller.com/user-guide/qa-log.html) and open a bug/reply here and I will try and help Thanks On Tue, Dec 3, 2019 at 2:11 PM Vijay Sachdeva <vijay.sachd...@indiqus.com> wrote: Dear Team, How can we install virtIO windows drivers to Windows 2016. As of now I tried to attach floppy drive with virtio-win.vfd image but while installing drivers didn’t get loaded. Please guide or let me know the proper way to install drivers.
