I'm having trouble getting Hyper-V to work on my Windows 8.1 PC (apologies if I'm posting this in the wrong category, I couldn't find Hyper-V anywhere else). I'm trying to run the Windows Phone 8.1 emulator, but I get the error message "'VM name' could not initialize".
I'm using an Intel 4770K CPU, and I have about 5 GB of RAM available when trying to start a VM.
Here's what I've tried:
- Removing Hyper-V (Add or remove Windows features), restarting, Adding Hyper-V, restarting
- Disabling Hardware Visualization in Z87-A BIOS, restarting, enabling, restarting
- Removing the VMs
- Creating a new VM
- Updated BIOS
- Reset BIOS to factory settings
- Stopped & restarted Hyper-V service
I've had no luck so far. Hyper-V was working perfectly fine the last time I used it, which is about 2-3 months ago.
Some of the errors I could find in the Event Viewer (not in chronological order):

There are no errors saying something about permissions or access denied.
I'd really appreciate it if you could help me fix this!
