Minimum ram requirement for Windows Server 2008 on Hyper-V

I don’t know what the exact ram requirement on Hyper-v but after installation, you can decrease it to 256 mb. Believe me, it’s enough for Windows 2008. After opening so many application, Windows 2008 started to use 245 mb ram. But if you don’t use any application, it uses 170 – 190 mb ram.

Update: Windows Server 2008 requires minimum 70 mb ram on Hyper-V. But 90 mb ram is better for performance.

Windows Server 2008 doesn’t boot with 60 mb ram.
