Hyper-v Failed To Change State
This error occurs when two virtual machines try to use the same DVD drive. To resolve this error, go to the virtual machine’s Media menu and un-capture the DVD drive. If the virtual machine needs access to the DVD drive then you will have to determine which virtual machine is presently using it and release the DVD drive from that virtual machine. share|improve this answer answered Mar 29 '14 at 19:42 Mohamed A.

I ran into this by double-clicking on a VHD, which causes recent version of Windows to open it up like a folder. However, it appears that the system then holds a lock on the file, which prevents Hyper-V from using it to start a VM. Rebooting fixed that problem. share|improve this answer answered Aug 5 '14 at 18:57 RedGreenCode 16115 2 Rebooting is overly drastic. Just open Disk Management and un-mount the VHD. –longneck Aug 5 '14 at 19:09 That's even better –RedGreenCode Aug 5 '14 at 19:18 add a comment| up vote 0 down vote I had the same issues a few days ago: Microsoft Emulated IDE Control

Oct. 2011] This article examines some of the more common error messages that Hyper-V administrators are likely to receive, as well as the solutions to those errors. If you would like http://www.virtualizationadmin.com/articles-tutorials/microsoft-hyper-v-articles/general/troubleshooting-common-hyper-v-errors-part1.html to read the other parts in this article series please go to: Troubleshooting Common Hyper-V Errors (Part 2) Troubleshooting Common Hyper-V Errors (Part 3) Introduction Although Hyper-V generally works pretty well, errors can and http://www.cryer.co.uk/brian/windows/hyper-v-server/help_failed_to_start_vhdx_general_access_denied_error.htm sometimes do occur. That being the case, I wanted to write a short article series outlining some of the more common errors that you are likely to encounter in a Hyper-V environment. As failed to I do, I will provide you with the solutions to those errors. Memory Errors One especially common error is a memory related error indicating that there is not enough memory in the system to start the virtual machine. You can see with this error looks like in Figure A below: Figure A: Hyper-V cannot start virtual machines and with sufficient memory is available. What this error is v failed to really saying is that you have allocated more memory to the virtual machine than what is presently available on the system. This isn't to say that the system lacks sufficient physical memory to start the virtual machine (although it may), but rather that there simply isn't enough memory currently available. Most often this error occurs when trying to start a virtual machine on a Hyper-V server when several other virtual machines are already running and have consumed the majority of the server’s memory. Microsoft Emulated IDE Controller Error Another especially common error that you are likely to encounter is a condition in which a virtual machine fails to start citing a problem with the Microsoft emulated IDE controller. You can see with this error looks like in Figure B below: Figure B: Problems with the emulated IDE controller may sometimes prevent virtual machines from starting. This error occurs when two virtual machines try to use the same DVD drive. To resolve this error, go to the virtual machine’s Media menu and un-capture the DVD drive. If the virtual machine needs access to the DVD drive then you will have to determine which virtual machine is presently using it and re
first time after copying (or replacing) its virtual hard drive file (.vhd or .vhdx) the virtual machine fails to start with the following error: (x) An error occurred while attempting to start the selected virtual machine(s). 'PC-Name; failed to start. Microsoft Emulated IDE Controller (Instance ID XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX): Failed to Power on with Error 'General access denied error'. IDE/ATAPI Account does not have sufficient privilege to open attachment 'E:\Hyper-V\PC-Name\Virtual Hard Disks\MyVHD.vhdx'. Error: 'General access denied error'. Where 'PC-Name' is the name of the virtual PC, the instance ID will be a unique series of letters and MyVHDX.vhdx will be the name (and path) of your own virtual hard drive file. Causes Each virtual machine is started using a virtual machine account. The virtual machine account needs read and write access to the .vhd/.vhdx file, but if the file has just been copied from somewhere then it most likely lacks the necessary file permissions. Remedy If you don't already have the Hyper-V Manager error dialog open ("An error occurred while attempting to start the selected virtual machine(s) ...") then try to start the virtual machine now. You need the error open. Click "See details". This will show additional details, and will look something like: 'PC-Name' failed to start.
