Why use the XEN driver of Amazon AWS? The reason is that the drivers officially provided by XEN are unsigned, and adding them directly to the system will cause errors.

3) Intel network card driver (27.7):

some matters

1. These images are only made for learning purposes. The system is not activated by default. If you need to use it for a long time, please use a genuine Windows Key to activate the system.

2. The DD image of Windows 11 Pro for Workstations 22H2 is a 15GB VHD. Sometimes you need to manually expand the disk after successful installation. The steps are as follows.

3. All the images are produced by the original MSDN. I can guarantee that I do not include any private goods. If you do not trust me, please do not use it.
4. Using Windows DD images may violate the TOS of some merchants. If you are punished by the merchant for using the image I made, I am not responsible.
5. The current disk partition format of the system uses MBR, so it will not be able to recognize hard disk space larger than 2TB.In other words, if DD is locatedsystem diskIf the capacity is greater than 2TB, then only 2TB can be used at most, and the remaining hard disk space will not be used. Of course, if the server has multiple hard disks and the hard disks other than the system disk are recognized normally and use the GPT disk partition format, the entire capacity can be used normally.
If you are sure that your VPS or dedicated server supports booting from UEFI, then please use the Windows system DD image suitable for UEFI booting.
