I'm sorry, but I am complete noob when it comes to virtualization. I have a simple Athlon x2 4400, 2gb of RAM, and RAID 0 2x1tb HDs. As far as the virtual machines go, my goal is to setup Windows Home Server with 512mb RAM and Windows 7 RC as a separate VM with 1gb RAM. This is because WHS can not record TV shows while Win7's Media Center can (without using any crazy hacks).
My question is, if I install VMWare ESXi 3.5 or ESXi 4, is there some way to allow the Win7 VM to see a PCI TV tuner card and record TV shows? From what I have read online, it is possible to setup WHS to share a "Recorded TV" folder from a different computer, and this case, I would have WHS look at the Win7 VM for the recorded shows.
Thanks in advance!
