Try fixing the Hyperv setup or check your configuration files.
With the launch of the Windows 10 demo, I opted to turn on Windows 8 hyperv for testing. But after making sure virtualization was activated in my BIOS and trying to set up a VM, I ran into this issue: Hyperv hit an error while setting up the network on (VM Name). It said it couldn’t find an object at computer localhost—possibly deleted or no access rights. Check that the Virtual Machine Management service is running. If it is, attempt to run the task with admin privileges (already tried).
Additionally, opening the virtual switch manager caused a problem: “An Error occurred while trying to retrieve a list of virtual switches.” The attempt on localhost failed consistently across admin accounts and different VM options.
In another scenario, when creating a VM in VirtualBox, I was limited to 32-bit VMs even though virtualization was off. Installing Windows 10 in one of these 32-bit environments resulted in a message that my CPU didn’t support PAE. I’ve searched for answers but need assistance.
Here are my system details:
- CPU: AMD Phenom 2 x4 965

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Have you turned off your computer? The location issue stems from how Hyper-V functions—typically you use remote desktop with menu controls for tasks like installing disk, restarting, or managing the OS. It may indicate a conflict, possibly because it was already running but crashed. Under Hyper-V, you can set up a 64-bit operating system.
