I was able to get it going with 6GB, something else is amiss, going to create a new thread. &nbsp;I will split points for the attemps, thank you

Hey there, I have a server 2008 R2 enterprise server with 3VM's running right now.<br />
Physical server has 48GB RAM<br />
<br />
VM1=4096MB<br />
VM2=16384MB<br />
vm3=4096MB<br />
<br />
I go to create a 4th VM and assign 16384MB RAM to the unit and start it and it fails with 3030 and 3040 errors. &nbsp;I drop the RAM to 4096 and it will start.<br />
<br />
What am I missing? &nbsp;I need 16384 for my 4th VM<br />
THank you

Virtual machine failing to start with 16GB RAM but will start with 4GB?

Virtualization is the act of creating a virtual (rather than actual) version of something, including (but not limited to) a virtual computer hardware platform, operating system (OS), storage device, or computer network resources. Virtualization is usually the creation of a system that executes separate from the underlying hardware resources, or the creation of an entire desktop for systems located elsewhere, similar to thin clients.

Virtualization

Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2008 R2, based on the Microsoft Vista codebase, is the last 32-bit server operating system released by Microsoft. It has a number of versions, including including Foundation, Standard, Enterprise, Datacenter, Web, HPC Server, Itanium and Storage; new features included server core installation and Hyper-V.
