Running Windows 11 ARM64 on Limbo

Requirements

  1. Flash an unlocked KVM Magisk Moudle download.
  2. Obtain a Windows system drive file.
  3. Acquire UTM's SPICE ARM64 driver link.

Installation

Currently, Limbo cannot boot the Windows Installer ISO. Therefore, you have two options to acquire a Windows system drive:

  1. Use an M1 Mac and UTM to obtain a Windows qcow2 drive file.
  2. Download the Windows Insider Preview ARM64 vmdk.

Limbo Setup

Here are the recommended settings for Limbo:

Board

  1. Machine Type: virt
  2. CPU Model: Deafult or host
  3. CPU Cores: 4-6 Cores
  4. RAM Memory: 3072 MB or larger (4096 MB or more is better)
  5. Enable UEFI
  6. Enable KVM
  7. Enable Unlocked UEFI
  8. Enable 100% Success Mode

Disks

  • Use the Windows system drive you acquired.

Removable

  • If you haven't installed the SPICE driver, you can mount the SPICE tools ISO here.

Boot

  • Do not modify.

Graphics

  • Use virtio-ramfb.

Network

  1. Network: Use 'User.'
  2. Network Card: Use virtio (install SPICE driver first).
  3. Host Forward: Forward RDP port with tcp:3389:3389.

Troubleshooting

System is slow

  • Click the 🚀 icon in Limbo to enable all cores after the system boots up (enabling while booting is acceptable if the wait time is too long).

No video or network driver

  • Install UTM's SPICE driver.

Could not run x86 apps

  • Disable the application cache in the program properties, as shown in the image below:

Apps open slow and too many error report programs in task manager

  • Disable the Windows Error Reporting service. It runs in x86 mode, but you cannot set Compatibility properties, causing an infinite crash loop.
