How to configure the coexistence of Hyper-V and VMware Virtual Machine Software

Microsoft's Server virtualization technology Hyper-V is supported in Windows server 2008 R2, Windows Server 2012, and the latest Windows 8, you only need to start the function to create and run the required Virtual Machine for operating system testing or server virtualization.

However, in addition to Hyper-V, you also need to run VMware virtual machines. However, if two virtual machine platforms are installed simultaneously in the system, the VMware virtual machine cannot run:

This is because the two are implemented based on the Hypervisor mechanism of the CPU and other underlying hardware, and they must manage the Hypervisor exclusively, so they cannot run simultaneously on a computer.

If you really need to install and use these two virtual machine platforms in one system, we can only use the Compromise Method for the moment, that is, to create two boot menus for Windows, you can choose whether to run Hyper-V at startup. The implementation method is very simple. You only need to run the command prompt cmd as an administrator in Windows, and then:

1. Run the bcdedit/copy {current}/d "Windows 8 (disable Hyper-V)" command, and then prompt that another menu item has been created, write down a string of code in.

2. Run the bcdedit/set {XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX} hypervisorlaunchtype OFF command, replace the above Code with the red XXX code here, such:

Start Windows 8 again and manually select whether to enable Hyper-V. In "Disable Hyper-V" mode, you can run the Vmware Virtual Machine, another option is to run the Hyper-V virtual machine, which can avoid uninstalling the Hyper-V function to run the VMware Virtual Machine:
