Surface pro 9 SQ3 Hyper-V not booting any ISO - arm64

I am trying to get CentOS booted in Hyper-V on my SP9 SQ3. No matter what I do, it ends up like this.
Even the quick create for Ubuntu 22 or Windows gives me this same error.
I cannot choose Gen 1, so it is all Gen 2.
These are my settings.
Any input would be appreciated.

Docker Desktop cannot switch to Windows Container

I have installed latest Docker Desktop. Currently unable to switch to Windows container. The option is blocked from task bar :
I am running Windows 10 Home 64-bit Build 19042.
You need windows 10 Pro or Enterprise to have access to Windows containers.

The other answer will indeed switch your daemon mode to Windows, but you will not be able to pull any Windows container.
Update 2022:
The link above now mentions that it should work for
Windows 11 64-bit: Home or Pro version 21H2 or higher, or Enterprise or Education version 21H2 or higher.
Windows 10 64-bit: Home or Pro 21H1 (build 19043) or higher, or Enterprise or Education 20H2 (build 19042) or higher.
I had spent hours debugging this issue and have to purchase win 10 pro license as well but still faced the same issue, by default it takes linux containers, switching to windows shows waiting forever, anyway here is how I fixed:
Windows Pro
Close/Shutt down the client by right clicking on the tiny icon on taskbar, and wait for a minute or two to have it close itself.
3.Open command prompt with Administrative rights
Type in this command:
c:\Program Files\Docker\Docker\resources>dockerd.exe
Open another command prompt with Administrative rights
C:\Program Files\Docker\Docker>DockerCli.exe -SwitchDaemon
Type "C:\Program Files\Docker\Docker>docker version" command to make sure it has switched to windows containers, it should look like attached screenshot
as per the latest Docker Desktop version, your settings should look like this
Quit Docker Desktop, and open again, Hope it helps some.
This command will change from windows to linux and vice versa.
I could not switch it easily, even using Altaf's approach. Eventually I went to Services (services.msc) and disabled Docker Desktop Service and updated docker service (Docker Engine) to make sure it can automatically start (for example, make sure the daemon.json config file exists in the location as the service command specified).
Then I can verify the result by typing docker version (in non-Administrative command prompt).

Do I need Windows 10 Pro to run Docker? Error: Hardware assisted virtualization and data execution protection must be enabled in the BIOS

I just installed Docker after upgrading my Windows 10 Home x64 to the version 2004 with the OS build 19041.264 (I needed to upgrade because Docker required me to have an OS buld >19018). Now if I want to launch docker I get this error Hardware assisted virtualization and data execution protection must be enabled in the BIOS. I have already read this (it is old) question, but because they let me install docker on my windows 10 home I assume that I can somehow run it without hyper-v, cuz I can't download it.
The Hyper-V role cannot be installed on Windows 10 Home. Hyper-V is used to run Linux kernel on Windows.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/virtualization/hyper-v-on-windows/quick-start/enable-hyper-v
The alternative solution is you can use Virtual box instead of Microsoft native Hyper-V. Docker toolbox comes with Virtual box. You can get details installation steps from below link.
https://docs.docker.com/toolbox/toolbox_install_windows/
You will need Windows 10 Pro to run docker. Home edition is not useful for the purpose.

Docker in a Parallels' Virtual Windows 10 Pro Machine

I have a 2013 Mac Pro running the latest Parallels Desktop Pro v
12.2.0 (41591)
On it, is a Windows 10 Pro virtual with Docker Version 17.03.1-ce-win10 (11972)
Docker can only run with 'windows containers' because when trying to fire up the 'MobyLinux' instance in Hyper-V, it never fires up always bombing at:
tsc: Fast TSC calibration failed
I understand this to be some time dependent sync that has to happen at boot time or such failure occurs. I bought a WD 1TB SSD on a Thunderbolt dock to speed up the run/boot time of the virtual. (it was on my platter RAID cage before) to no avail. No diff.
Parallels IS set to 'enable nested virtualization' and I have started a virtual in Hyper-V on the win 10 Pro VM just fine, no errors. I have checked and unchecked 'PMU Virtualization' which I understand will provide statistics to the host but slow the VM.
I tried:
reducing the number of assigned cores to the VM as suggested by
another post to no avail (2-6 cores tried)
Reducing the cores to '1' for Docker (and mixing with above attempt)
increasing the number of cores to docker
adding/reducing memory to VM/Docker
playing with the
C:\Program
Files\Docker\Docker\resources\MobyLinux.ps1
file that loads the VM whereas in another post I changed something to
verifying that "C:\Users\Public\Documents\Hyper-V\Virtual hard disks\MobyLinuxVM.vhdx" is teh correct location for the .vhdx
verifying that the .iso is at "C:\Program Files\Docker\Docker\Resources\mobylinux.iso"
uninstalling Hyper-v/reinstalling Hyper-v manually and letting Docker do it automatically

I am at wit's end. I specifically bought this machine so I could do my MS/Visual Studio development along with iOS development on the same box. I have done so, this way, for the past 5-6 years with a 2009 Mac Pro before and now my 2013 MP, but never with Docker before...
So, I need one of two solutions:
a way to make Visual Studio 2015/2017 'look' at my host Mac's Docker instance in order to debug/move on to development
a way to make this 'MobyLinux' Docker vm run.
I was having the same issues and I had initially set the memory to the highest levels allotted and Docker just flat would not run in the Windows box. After tinkering with it for a while I realized that in the Windows box I had not done any of the updates so I ran all those and logged back in, and was getting the same issues of docker not running. That is when I moved over to Parallels and made the changes shown below. Hopefully that helps!

how to run ruby on rails program in ubuntu installed in vmware?

I am trying to install ruby on rails on my windows. But after searching , I came to know that the best combination for ruby is either MAC or LINUX OS. But I m having laptop with windows 10. So can i install and run ruby and rails in UBUNTU inside VMware or which is the best option available?
Not sure what version of Windows 10 you have, but if you have the version that supports Hyper-V you have two good options.
http://vagrantup.com
Using either Oracle's Virtual Box or Hyper-V you can basically have a dedicated VM on your local box in the time it takes to download a pre-packaged box. I used this for a long time, though I now use http://c9.io as a cloud based IDE.
Step 1. Download the Oracle VM Virtual box from here.
Step 2. Download the Ubuntu ISO file. 64 bit Windows supports both 32 bit as
well as 64 bit guest OS. If your machine is a 64 bit machine then
download ubuntu-14.04.3-desktop-amd64.iso.
Step 3. Enable Intel vt-x from the BIOS menu.
Step 4. Disable Hyper-V platform from Turn windows features on or off.
Step 5. Insert the ISO image into the virtual CD/DVD drive as instructed here.
Step 6. Once the Ubuntu is installed on your VM. Install virtual box guest additions and it will be mounted inside the /media folder and at the right hand corner there will be a button to install the software and you're done with your setup.

Delphi 6 Update 2 installation workaround on Windows 8.1 x64?

I need to work with Delphi 6 Update 2 in Windows 8.1 x64 (in case you were wondering, it's about maintaining an old application, migrating to a newer version is not an option. I can't use a VM because I use the same machine to connect to some peripherals that don't work in a VM).
The problem is that Update 2 has a 32 bit installer with a 16 bit stub. So the current behaviour is that the installer starts, it extracts the files in a temp location, starts the setup then nothing appears on screen.
So far, I gathered that it is impossible to do it. But the same behaviour I 've seen for SQL Server 2000 (don't ask) but there I was able to use msetup.exe (DemoShield) to open a sqlservr.dbd that started the script. However, there is no such dbd file. I guess I was lucky on SQLServer 2000.
So far I've tried compatibility mode, DosBox, replacing the setup file with both Installshield 3 and 5, waiting for hours for the setup to start (sometimes, W8 does that), even comparing files and registries on an XP machine before and after update 2 but this might be a bit too risky to apply on a real machine.
Since Windows 8.1 86 includes Hyper-V for running VMs, most modern hardware supports Hyper-V, and Windows 8 x86 can still run 16-bit based apps:
Install a Windows 8.1 x86 VM under your host physical machine, then install it there.
The up-tick: it is easy to move your VM to a new host without needing to reinstall a full new VM.
See http://www.techrepublic.com/blog/windows-and-office/get-started-with-windows-8-client-hyper-v-the-right-way/7893/ and http://www.infoworld.com/d/virtualization/5-excellent-uses-of-windows-8-hyper-v-208436 to get started with Hyper-V.
Hyper-V can redirect quite a bit of hardware from the host to the VM nowadays. For "old" hardware like COM and LPT ports you often can buy USB adapters that can be redirected.
If installing on x86 Windows 8.1 works and x64 fails, I think you have proved the assumption that the 16-bit portion of the installer is the culprit.
Maybe my blog post from last year can solve your problem:
http://blog.dummzeuch.de/2013/11/11/delphi-6-on-windows-8-1/
excerpt:
I just deleted the registry entry
HKCU\Software\Borland\Delphi\6.0\LM
(I did not make a backup, what would have been the point?)
I started Delphi 6, ignored the warning about incompatibilities (which was talking about Delphi 7 anyway) and went through the registration/activation process again. This time it worked.
Maybe I should mention, that I did not install any of my Delphi versions to c:\program files but put them into c:\Delphi instead to avoid any problems with access rights to the installation directory.
