Hi guys,

I hvae just bought a graphics card for the n54l, its running xbmc great connected to a tv. However i want to install xbmc on one of thr vm's and output that via the graphics card permanantly. The. Just rsp into the machine to use other vm's and or the machine its self. Is it possible to do this ? Basically i need the gpu to ignore the actual pc and just worry about one of the vm's.

B@lls ! Can it be done on the gen8 hp microservers ?

I guess i better order a Gen8 then, Will the Celeron one do the trick ? i will update the CPU to a xenon at some point however day 1 the celeron version makes financial sense if im going to buy one.

Cheers guys, i ran xbmc on a pi and it was so slow. I might treat myself to a gen 8 any way. I just wanted to consolidate as much as possible into one box, asking too much i think. I have a HD6450 in my n54L and that works a treat. Its on the tv and the mrs even plays some simple games on it at times and it runs really quite well. I am just askinn too much of it i think.
