So been doing a lot of virtualization at work and thought, Couldnt I just spin up a VM via Hyper-V on my Win10 Pro machine at home and just log into that whenever I was ready to work on my campaign or run a game?

yah sure, it might be superfluous, but i think it would be nifty for staying organized when that machine was dedicated to nothing but D&D.

Anyone ever try this (with Hyper-V, VMware, or other virtualization software).

Im going to give it a go regardless, but was checking to see if anyone had run into any hurdles.

build specs:

WIN10 Pro
CPU: i7-3820 @ 3.60GHz
RAM: 24 GM
NVidia GeForce GTX 770

Id be running the VM with dynamic RAM.

Yep, I've used both a Windows VM and VMWare. Works just fine if you get the networking setup right.

I run it on Parallels all the time.

You also need to ensure DirectX graphics support.
