Windows – BSOD after enabling Hyper-V

bsodhyper-vvirtualizationwindows 10

I get a BSOD with stop code:

SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED

on a clean windows install after enabling hyper-v.

The first time this has happened to me is when I installed docker for windows, which suggested that I enable Hyper-V. I selected ok, and then the laptop rebooted, and since then it didn't boot, giving out the same stopcode I mentioned.

I've reinstalled windows 10 and manually enabled Hyper-v, and ditto.
I've reinstalled one more time, and again, ditto.

I've searched and read some posts online, but I have yet to come across a post that actually mentions a concrete fix on this issue — I'm clueless right now.

  • I'm running Windows 10 Pro, and I have a separate physical drive that has Debian installed.
  • My laptop is LG Gram 2018 (15Z980) with i7-8550u.
  • I have the latest BIOS (2018-01-09)
  • I don't see a virtualization option in my BIOS.
  • systeminfo command says that my laptop is capable of running Hyper-V.

Edit:

  • Virtualization is enabled, despite the lack of an option at the bios. Running docker toolbox (virtualbox) or running kvm from debian gives me no problem.
  • I have checked the drivers and they were all up to date.
  • I am going to check with LG support to see if this is an issue specific to my laptop, or to this model.

Best Answer

15z980 BIOS has updated to K2ZC0250. You can update using LG DNA Center application. I just update that and Hyper-v Works Fine.
