Latest July 8 Windows update broke this. Not sure why, but this no longer works. EDIT: The updates work perfectly fine on the HOST system, its the VM's that are effected. If you remove and prevent Windows from updating KB5062553 on the VM's, this still works.

One "bug" I'm aware of: File Pathing. I will issue a correction to this in the next few days, but for RIGHT NOW, the software is still using my custom pathing to my VM folders and ISO directories. I'll correct the default directories to actual Hyper-V defaults in the next few days and re-upload. For right now, you can work around it by making note of your Hyper-V Hard Disk folder in Hyper-V's configuration, and pathing to it during the correct prompt during install. This step will still apply if you're using a custom path in the future, my update will only correct this step so default pathing is the default location for my program. I've used this software on 2 very wildly different systems so far and no issues. Would love to hear feedback if it works for other people!

This. Thank you to everyone who did participate! I would have, but heat and a bunch of AMD garbage that's not worth folding on........ -
Updated OP: Confirmed working in Windows 10 and 11 host environments both (Pro and IoT versions). Parsec on Windows 10 hosts seems to be a known issue though from other people's reporting on the same script style I'm using. I do not know of a solution other than use Windows 11 host if you need Parsec. Otherwise, this program / script / batch file whatever, seems to work exactly as I intended it to do. I will have to update the batch file's default locations on everything to actual Windows Hyper-V default locations so that doesn't get confusing. You can ofc always type in a "custom" location during the install process to match your Hyper-V configuration, but it can get confusing though if you're still using default settings and don't think about it. So long as you're aware of that though (which I will update easily later on in another update), the program works great!

Corrected some issues with the original coding. Appears that no matter what I try to do, Hyper-V or the drivers or something appears to NOT listen to the limits I'm setting in the software. As such, I removed the GPU Partition Percentage options I had before, as they weren't doing anything at all. This program splits your GPU EVENLY among VM's. If there's no GPU load at all, your VM will have 100% of the GPU's capabilities. If 2 VM's are fighting for resources, each gets 50%. And so on. Updated OP with all new finalized information and installer downloads, new screenshots, and readme. This is possibly final "enough" version for me to release. Hope you guys enjoy it! Seems to be working solidly for me and I've tested it on a GTX 760 2GB, GTX 960 4GB, GTX 1060 6GB, GTX 1080Ti 11GB, Intel Arc A770 16GB (was stuttery but worked, possibly REBAR issues), AMD RX 6500 XT 4GB and 8GB, RX 580 8GB, RX 7900GRE, RX 7900 XTX, and RX 9070 XT. So far, I have found absolutely no combination of cards or drivers that this program does NOT work in. Only tested in Windows 11. Released.

What's even better is when your OWN damn phone number calls you to spam you. I've had that happen before a few times. Apparently since I've had my number for 2 decades, it's gotten around a little.

techpowerup AMD Radeon AI PRO R9700 32GB Graphics Card Announced at Computex
pio replied to LabRat's topic in Hardware News
Idk but WANT. My 9070XT feels like a decent upgrade over my 7900XTX. However there's one place where it doesn't, and that's when I run out of VRAM (and I have). My 9070XT hits that VRAM wall on my monitor, my 7900XTX will just keep chugging and chugging with its 24GB. Honestly I'm kind of torn which card's better at this point in my system. The 9070XT performs better with modern titles and frame gen stuff / FSR type things. But that VRAM wall does hit hard, I end up with single digit stuttering when I hit it, whereas on my 7900XTX that was never ever a problem. This card fixes that issue and makes Navi 48 and proper upgrade. Will be interesting to see what they price at for sure. -
So, according to AI tools, this GPU sharing tool I created MIGHT not work correctly setting an incredibly LOW GPU usage percentage. I was planning on setting up some more VM's on my server box with a low percentage, like 5% GPU usage, so that way they could at least use the GPU for desktop things. So, with that said, I'm going to work on a re-write of the script in the next few weeks. I'd like to see this program at a point where it'll happily allocate any GPU in a VM, with as little as a 5% setting. So we'll see if I get it there. As is: This app has been tested with an Intel Arc A770 on Windows 11, and works correctly with large allocation splits like 40%, 50%, etc. Smaller usage percentages have NOT been tested, nor has any other cards (although the script was written generically with the 16GB Arc A770 installed, it does not call the Intel card specifically).

toms hardware Igor's Lab uncovers 'hotspot issue' affecting all RTX 50-series GPUs
pio replied to pio's topic in Hardware News
Hold on a second there, WHAT? That's actually a thing???????? Okay yup, I need to find these cards. I have a Socket 754 system that could probably play PhysX titles great with a GPU setup like that. -
Well, I spent about a week+ working on this app, so I DON'T have to spend hours every time. You can actually go in there and edit the script or the text file in the data directory too, so you can change your own "default directories" in the "app" (batch file) so you don't have to type your directory each time. I think my current version has a changed default directory of D:\Hyper-V\ instead. Otherwise I haven't made any changes, and this script + batch file is doing all the heavy lifting on my VM server.
