For some reason though, somewhere else on the net I read I should use Soundblaster 16, though for me that never worked.Īs for USB, should I enable emulated USB ports, or disable them? If enabled, should I set them to be USB-1.1, USB-2.0, or USB-3.0 ports? In the 'audio' tab, the only one that seems to work is ICH AC97. In the 'storage' tab how should I set my IDE controller? Should I use PIIX3, PIIX4, or ICH6? In the 'display' tab, I still have to worry about how much VRam I need, And whether I should enable or disable 3D acceleration and 2D acceleration. I don't know which I should choose.Īnd ALL that stuff above was just in the 'system' tab for my virtual machine. However there's lots of more specialized obscure settings in VBox, that might play a HUGE role in ME working or breaking, given how buggy the OS is to start with.įor best optimized performance, how should I set special features like Chipset (PIIX3 or ICH9)? Should I have I/O APIC enabled or disabled? How about EFI? Should I enable that or leave it disabled? Should I enable PAE/NX or leave it disabled? Regarding acceleration, should I enable VT-x/AMT-V or leave it disabled? What about Nested Paging (enabled or disabled)? And what should I set for the Paravirtualization Interface? My choices for that are default, legacy, minimal, Hyper-V, and KVM.
