I think it belongs only to timer/clock (not network card), and only

The good news, is that I have VirtIO network drivers for Windows (XP...7).
The bad news, is that VirtIO itself in VirtualBox is not optimized and
gives lower performance than Intel E1000 network emulation. (but I
tested it years ago.)

Starting to use vbox 5 for the first time and I wondering how we
know if
the paravirt drivers are actually being used in Windows.
When I did the original install, I didn't know there was a
paravirtprovider switch, so I guess it did the default, which
supposedly
picks the appropriate interface when starting the VM.
When I switched it to paravirtprovider=hyperv and booted the guest
again, it didn't prompt saying there was any hardware changes.
Do I need to do anything in the Windows guest to make it work?
How do I know it is working?
thanks,
Geoff
Hi Alexey.
Is it only Windows 7, or does Windows 2012 Server also work? I assume
that it works on any Windows that is 7 or greater.
Do you think there should be something obvious in the guest os so we
know it is working?
The guest seems pretty responsive.
That reminds me I need to do some testing on the network performance
side for vbox 5 to see what driver performs best and how it compares to
vbox 4.
thanks,
Geoff
