You have a Hyper-V host named Server1 that runs Windows Server 2016. Server1 hosts a virtual machine
named VM1.
You need to provide VM1 with direct access to a graphics processing unit (GPU) on Server1.
What should you do first?
A.
On VM1, install the Quality Windows Audio Video Experience (qWave) feature.
B.
Disable the display adapter device on Server1.
C.
In the settings of VM1, add a RemoteFX 3D Video Adapter.
D.
Dismount the display adapter on Server1.
Explanation:
Before the physical device is allowed to be passed through to the VM, the device must be disabled on the host system. The physical device must be accessible/available exclusively to the VM only.

Best Answer: B
I find the wording of the question to be bad. Both B & C could be seen as providing direct access to the GPU, however C would require interfacing with the GPU through the Host OS.
