I have a old computer to use but not sure if i should use Windows Virtual Machine Server but require a licence to do this. Any recommendations for software to use?

Posted February 25, 2017 Hyper-v server is free(you can get it as a seprate os). If you just running vm's Id run kvm on linux. Its normally the fastest and complety free(no possible paid features. Look at libvirt on centos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then log into from command line and remote issue commands that way. ¸„»°'´¸„»°'´ Vorticalbox `'°«„¸`'°«„¸`'°«„¸¸„»°'´¸„»°'´`'°«„¸Scientia Potentia est ¸„»°'´`'°«„¸`'°«„¸¸„»°'´ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted February 26, 2017 Been using hyper-V extensively for development. It works pretty well through I find that sharing files between it and my windows environment is a bit of a pain. Also there is no GPU acceleration for the graphics so expect a slightly laggy mouse and interface (at least in Ubuntu).
