  • 1.  Sound, 3D aero for w2008r2 VM?

    Posted Apr 29, 2011 04:21 AM

    Is it possible to add a sound device and 3D display driver into Windows 2008r2 VM in ESXi 4.1?

    Anyone used Aero effect to RDP into Windows 2008r2 VM successfully?

    With RDP 6.x you can use Aero without the need of a real 3D card.

    Just enable it by adding the Desktop Experience feature:

    Note that your client must support Aero (so you canno use, for example, XP to use this feature).
