So I bought a new HP Envy Desktop specifically for Windows Phone Development and ironically I can't get Hyper-V running. The machine just hangs on startup and eventually Windows 8.1 Pro x64 just crashes after multiple attempts after enabling Hyper-V in Windows Programs/Features. It's a Intel i5 with 12GB of RAM and virtualization is enabled in the BIOS. I've read through multiple threads over the last several days and tried the following:
- Updating all local drivers and Windows updates
- Disabling Bluetooth
- Uninstalling Avira AV
- Someone also suggested disabling USB 3.0 support but I don't see an option to do this in my BIOS.
I've wasted a lot of time on this and I would really appreciate any help.
Thanks
