Re: VM Guest BIOS/UEFI Boot

Hi

I have been asked to post this question. Somebody at my firm read an article that VMware will soon deprecate bios boot at the hypervisor level and got a bit confused thinking this may apply at the VM level.

Does anyone know when future versions of VM hardware are released that VMware may plan to remove the option for Bios boots

Thanks in advance

I don't know of any plan to do that. Obviously, part of the value of VMware software is being able to migrate old hardware installs to VMs and run the old operating system in the VM.
