I've tried to install Hyper-v platform component on my Windows 8 Pro. I got no message about anything going wrong. Just after "need restart" i got 30% progress done, then sudden restart again and "canceling unsuccessful install" message. No log messages, or rather say i don't know where to look for it. How could i install a Hyper-V server on W8PRO? which are the system requirements i need to check? I tried also recipe as advised for localized windows here it doesn't job on my W8PRO rus
UPDATE To Question: I 've also tried non-gui dism install of component that way i got the same result first a success message and rollback after reboot. there are a few warnings in dism.log
