I am still not 100% clear if the above hardware will run VMware 14. I asked ASUS and could not get a direct answer out of them, lots of excuses. VMware Compatibility Guide - System Search I tried to contact VMware support and they sent me this: Intel® Virtualization Technology for Directed I/O (VT-d) = YES ROG MAXIMUS X HERO | Motherboards | ASUS South Africa The Asus Z370 Maximus 10(x) Hero motherboard uses the Z370 chipset. I had a look at this on Intel's website but can't find anything about VT-X or virtualization. Very interesting article on Picking a Motherboard and Processor to use with Virtualization | Everything VMĪccording to this article "Intel has a fairly new technology called vPro. I am so confused about which new hardware I must buy. The Intel "VMX Unrestricted Guest" feature is necessery to run this virtual machine on an Intel Processor. Now by opening File Explorer, you will see that the capacity of your VM hard drive has increased to the value you previously selected.The message I get on my current hardware is: This host does not support virtualizing real mode.

Note 1: To proceed with the steps below, the VM should be powered off. In this article, you will see how to extend the existing disk capacity using VMware Workstation. Our options, in this case, are either to add a new separate virtual disk to VM or to extend the existing disk to meet our requirements. However, we have decided to test the WSUS functionality, which means we will need a lot of available GB space to download the updates we choose. Let’s say we already have a Windows Server VM on VMware Workstation with a total disk space of 30 GB.
