Hello, any one with Windows 10 installed on a VirtualBox VM on FreeNas? I tried several times and installs witout any problem, but when booting up hangs on logo screen.

Thank You

I've got a Windows 10 VM running in a VirtualBox jail and it's rock solid. Has been running for days, updates and reboots without any issues.

Thank you AdrianWillia it worked, probably lack of memory. I mimic your setting and its working now!

I'm giving it more memory than it probably needed as I'm running a glassfish server and java app that reads lots of data into memory. I'd be very surprised if it didn't run with 2GB and should be more than happy with 4GB.
