0:37 if virtualization is like cake, and the cake is a lie, then virtualization is a lie and therefore doesn't exist.

Touch ID and fingerprint scanning technology as fast as possible.

Ogres are like operating systems, we have layers.

Thank you so much! I am a student from Greece studying at the International Hellenic University, Business Organization and Management and on the lesson of MIS it has a chapter which it talks about Pc Virtualization & since I don't have the best knowledge about PCs I couldn't make sense out of it, how it is done and why it is beneficial. I am so glad that I stumbled across your video while doing a quick search about it. I have a much better understanding of it since you explained it in such an easy way to comprehend. Keep up the amazing work!

Glad I watched this. Although I had a basic idea of VM, this really clarified it. Thanks.

Linus, your charismatic personality is joyful as ever. Even 6 years later. But I would say, it has improved over overtime.

I cant handle the amount of video's you are dropping right now! so much tech and so Quick (y)

What a coincidence, I've been researching the Xen Project and pci passthrough. I plan to split my current machine down the middle to run Linux Mint Debian Edition and Windows 10 at the same time. I currently dual-boot them, I saw this as the next step. I also plan to start comparing gaming ports and running in wine vs the real thing at the same time. I'm hoping to have the switch completed by the weekend (kid takes up too much time and I'm changing my cooling solution). I just wanted to thank you for this vid because you showed me another potential use that I hadn't considered. LAN/multiplayer using the same box but multiple screens. That's something that can seriously let me have more fun in gaming when my nephews visit in the future.

VT-x helped with instructions, while VT-d helps with accessing hardware I/O. There's also VT-i. Those terms should never be mixed, as they are different capabilities of a CPU. Most modern CPU have VT-x. Oh, BTW, it should be mentioned in the video that these capabilities must be turned on in the BIOS/UEFI if they are going to be used. Most of the time they are off by default.

geniously easy explained. a rare video about this topic including fun facts. damn good work mate and greetings from Berlin!)

“One OS on top of another one, on top of another one, on top of another one” Congratulations! You have just made a VMCeption!

I know this video is a little older but I just wanted to say thanks for making these. I'm studying to take the CompTIA A+ exam and this part confused me a little. I understand it a little more now. :)

Awesome video Linus. Do you think you can make any Linux server videos in the future?

We can run a "virtual machine" in a "virtual machine" like an a inception? Just to see benchmarks results.

I was searching about virtual machines on Google on my PC while my phone was playing random videos about bear attacks. After a few minutes, KZfaq redirected my feed to this video. big brother at work

Man I didn't know 2 gaming rigs in one tower would be how you virtually catch hotdogs.

as fast as possible Linux : Ubuntu and others

Just because of that 'Inception' joke at the beginning, you should do a video of a heavily nested VM- As in ten or so layers.

I once ran a commodore 64 emulator inside DOSBox, on my windows pc, it worked suprisingly well, although there was no sound because that weird german emulator from the 90s needed some obscure sound drivers that I couldn't find anywhere. Bubble Bobble ran all right, no glitches or anything.

You ought to advertise this channel more on linus tech tips

im glad youtube suggested me this content, i think that i'll learn a lot here

Okay Linus. If virtualization is so great, what VM's do you suggest or prefer?

Most people wonder why I have 32GB RAM; it's for this reason as well as music production and graphic design/photo editing. I have an XP virtual machine, play around in Linux because dual booting is a headache, and also love to test/play with old Betas--Longhorn 4074 for example.

keystroke injection tools as fast as possible.

For amd go to advanced settings>OC>cpu features>svm enable>

Love the technical topics.

This is how I continue to enjoy the dated Windows XP (guest OS) but still stay up-to-date with latest OSs by having it run within Windows 8.1 (host OS).

I use at least 4 separate Virtual Machines (VM) for: - Banking, so most of the time the VM is 'powered off' and can't be hacked. Its browser is only used for banking. - Music, I still prefer Windows XP for playing my music with Windows Media Player and its WOW and True Bass Effects. - Trying out new applications, I can take a snapshot, so I can restore to the previous situation. - The normal stuff like internet browsing, email, whatsapp client, torrents for downloading and some office use. I back up each VM, so I always can recover from any failure in a VM. I can try out exotic stuff without any risk for the other VMs or my Host OS.

2:00 Linus doesn't mention Mac OS directly. Thank you Linus, thank you...

you can also use virtualization to run a operating system that is on your hdd/ssd i use that to run linux either inside virtualbox in windows or to boot directly into linux (archlinux) gets stuff done much faster (its a mess to setup and configure though)

You could have mentioned the "business-/commercial use" of virtualization like in offices or schools where all the computers are just thin clients, basically virtual machines, running on a thick client, like a server or something. (don't blame me if I said something wrong, I'm not really a pro at this or anything)

You made it so clear, thanks!

you're presentation is very interesting. thanks.

Very informative video, but there's one thing I'm not sure I'm completely on board with, which is the part about testing potentially malicious sites on a vm. I agree that it would be perfectly secure if the vm was on an isolated network, but is that even possible? In order for me to connect to the internet with my vm I have to lan to the main OS and connect through the main os internet connection. I have actually had instances where I loaded a malicious page on my vm and got a warning from malwarebytes in my main os, so unless there's some other way to connect your vm to the web I'm not sure if you could confidently say this is secure.

why is the cpu virtualization disabled as standard? Blue stacks was telling me I'd be better off enabling it. If it's so good why does it come switched off?

there is a VR story called Ready player one where old arcade games are played in a 3D world. I thought it odd that a VR world one step below the matrix can play old games so well apparently on the same operating system.

Fake phones (cheap chinese copies) as fast as possible

As of watching this tech quickie is 5,000 subs from one million

4:37 "for a pratic"(that pich)

to use virtualization software (vbox, vware, etc.) is a laptop with gaming or workstation configurations recommended? Thx!

Techquickie channel = Techquickie on ads LOL HAHAHA

Can you do a special video about "VM - inception"? It would be awesome!

You should have talked about JVM (Java Virtual Machines) too.

UEFI vs Legacy BIOS please. So many people have issues with these, it`s just a must have episode.

Ey liny my boss hehe i hope update this channel 4 ever cuz i dont see AAANY dude that knows more about tec then u, serausly u are frickin ROG the tec ;)

The Weaponization of House Cats As Fast As Possible

i have annotations on but i cant click the 2 gaming rigs one tower video?

So, you said that older video games will run better on a 32 bit system, would this also include emulators?

Turning on virtualization in bios in my PC causes bsod- page fault in non paged are any help?

wow but have questions 1.how can i do this or is it a downloadable software 2.how do i swich between os

When are you going to make the Instructions per clock video?

Where is the 2 gaming rigs link? I think it wasn't annotated...

Busses in a computer system as fast as possible

I use a VM for an FTP server as well as a Teamspeak server. What do you use it for?

I can't find virtualization settings in bios. What should I replace, processor or mother board? Can't find any info any where, I'm using and ryzen 2700

so does this VT X thing have any disadvantage when enabled?

well then :O modern day split screen with virtual machines eh? pretty freaking sweet if you ask me :D

where is the link to that video? 2 games, 1 rig?????

is it safe to always on the virtualization?

holy shit Linus is awesome

How to heck can I enable or use it on AMD Ryzen 1700?

Hi Linus , does Virtualisation effect a general pc performance and in game performance ? For example i'm running Nox and there is a cool game Marvel Furture Fight , if i turn this on , performance in that game should go up , but will it slow down or dmg my hardware , system outside this app ? Will it be better to virtualize a OS system using Oracle Virtual Box ? Help :D

what if ur on windows 7 with a virtual machine running (Ubuntu) and using splash top to control the windows 7 underneath it and using splash top to control Ubuntu again.....

Is it good for gaming or not

There was no link to the video about using one pc as two computers, because I need that, Like I really needs that.

where are the other channels?

*”ONIONS HAVE LAYERS!”*

Hmm, it’s actually kernels and API creating a layer on top of the hardware creating a easier to manage virtual computer of itself co trolled by a hyper visor that acts as an interface to the host OS, it uses time sharing and context switching, and it was developed in the 60’s, no??

Virtualization snapshots 'back up' temporal changes in images, but anything virtual is very poor for actual backups, for the same reason backing up to a folder or partition on your hard drive is bad. Physical separation is essential for securing a backup; a separate drive, even a flash stick, is safer should a HDD crash, because when that happens all partitions are going to be inaccessible. Certain advantages exist for cloned drive images (immediate swappable restoration), or plain folder\file duplication ( easy, open, cross-platform access) but VMs have suddenly and mysteriously failed to run, so while convenient and flexible, they are far less secure and safe than other backup methods.

afaik "avast" has some virtualizing-like feature to test apps (deep test)

If you’ve ever played Minecraft, you may be surprised to hear that Minecraft (Java Edition) actually runs as a “Virtual Machine”! And the reason why it runs as a virtual machine is due to how Java works. One big point to this conclusion is that you can “Allocate a certain amount of your system memory to the Java VM” basically, something you can also do with OS virtualization.

My new cloud platform relies on virtual machines to run. sort of like google cloud. users remote to a virtual machine instead of a physical machine.

ty linus

There are really not that much people commenting here for a 750k sub channel.... Very interesting ^^

So, it all sounds great, but where are the disadvantages and does it have any benefis for everyday gaming and content creation?

can I run a game on steam in a VM, and use steam in home streaming to stream it to another device? the reason I want to run it in a VM, is because the game needs to be open on the computer to stream it, and it renders the computer unusable for other games or programs. or even moving the mouse.

that damn white line at the bottom is an eyesore

How many compuers can a quantum computer virtualize?

The One True Faith As Fast As Possible

Optimizing BIOS settings AFAP!

Hey! I think you doing an excellent job out there and I really appreciate but you are going to fast so sometimes it's hard to understand the concept and have to watch the video again and again, as a school student its hard to find enough time to check with videos spending long time watching it over again.

Am i the only one asking myself where they take their images in the videos??

Darn, I forgot my question! I know that this is a toss-up, but I'm a bit lost about Windows Activation. Would pci passthrough allow for moving an existing Windows install to a vm without losing activation?

@techquickie you love explosions, dont you ;)

One wipe charlies as fast as possible!

Can't you just make a virtual machine with a own gpu and keyboard and mouse or am I totally wrong?

Quick question. when i leave virtualization enabled on the CPU, it has the same performance on non virtualized ambients like just regular windows? Or because of that enabled the performance can be lower? :)

3:14, Windows 7, is that you?!

Can you put your free windows 10 install on a VM?

In my bios virtulazation is disabled. What will happen if i enable it and will my performance go up?

Lifetime warranty? HELL YEA!

1:09 omg my computer makes the same noise when i turn on virtualization :

INCEPTIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Can i7 6700k or any lga 1150/1151 i7 quad core CPU play Windows 8.1 and android lollipop over Windows 10?

Would it be considered emulation or virtualization when I run Android in a window on my PC?

Gaming on Linux (Ubuntu) vs gaming on Windows please! How to?, same performance? I don't think so, would origin work smoothly with tweaks and workarounds? Steam have some advantage right there hmm (steamlink)

Now do, *Android versus iOS architecture performance* as fast as possible pretty please :P
