I'm trying to run Windows 10 on a virtual machine, but every ISO I launch shows me a blue screen with an error: system thread exception not handled
I'm using Arch and my specs are: AMD Ryzen 7 1700x, ROG STRIX B550-E GAMING
LC_ALL=c lscpu | grep Virtualization Virtualization: AMD-V
I read archwiki and it says: "On KVM machines this issue can generally be solved by setting the CPU model to core2duo." I selected the Conroe model, which is a codename for a core2duo, and now I can see the Windows logo, but the VM instantly closes to a default black screen.

You may need to turn on virtualization support in your BIOS for the CPU. That's often disabled by default.

Try re-creating the VM from scratch but keep the virtual HD. Sometimes this fixes similar issues. At least you don't have to worry about TPM2 emulation with Windows 10. That's a big positive.

You could try something like QuickEmu which does all the setup stuff for you. I haven't tried it with Windows yet but it worked for me to get a Mac VM up and running pretty easily.

Check your bios and make sure SVM is enabled
