AMD 7735HS Windows 11 22h2 with Intel I225-v NIC using workstation 17.01 on the host.
Windows guest has continual blips and freezes when playing audio and/or transferring
network files between host and guest. Appears the I225-V may be an issue
along with the silly side-channel mitigations. Would some kind soul point me
at fixing this? (using latest drivers and updates).
Hey there,
Good that I read your message.
At least I am not the only one.
Windows 11 preview 25346:
MB: Z790
CPU: Intel core 13g i7
Video from CPU
Memory: 64G Ram
Storage WD SSD 1G, Sabrent Rocket 4
HD WD RAID0 2 X 4Tb
VM 12 thread, 16Gb, Windows 11 latest PRO (no prev) dedicated SSD.
But Workstation is not performing at all.
I can't pin point it at the moment, tonight I will swittch to Linux and see what the difference in performance is.
I Will be back

The Windows 11 22H2 host is dead meat - Workstation now has this silly side-channel mitigation and it involves having some form of hyper-v on the host. My vague understanding is this happens because of Windows host device drivers and MS trying to 'secure' them. MS is notorious for having a history of device driver implementations going back to the CPU ring 0/1/2/3 thingy and trying to accommodate everyone. Hopefully MS and VMWare and work thru all this sillyness.
This is what helped me. On a Windows host change the 'power options' to high. You can fine tune these settings while still fixing some issues with guests.
