I'm trying to run ArcGIS Desktop 10.0 in a Windows 7 (32bit) virtual machine. I don't have any native Microsoft Windows available. I'm using from Oracle for virtualization in a native linux environment (Sabayon). I'm having exactly this issue: The proposed solution is to update video card driver. But in VirtualBox there are driver called 'Guest additions' and they are already up-to-date. I know some of my fellow students are working with ArcGIS in VMs and they seem not to have any kind of issues. What could it be?
3D- and 2D-Video-acceleration are enabled. It's a native Linux machine, running a virtual Windows 7 machine - 32bit. I'm aware of ESRI's system requirements. I allocated 256MB video RAM and enabled 2D and 3D hardware acceleration - as seen in the screenshot. Anyways, I've been running analyzation of my system requirements from inside the machine, this is the result: Now I got to figure out how to fix it.
Video memory is okay, but the rest I've never heard of. I installed the as @scw suggested, now it looks like that: I have all recommended attributes now, but it still says: Unfortunately, your Video Card does not meet this requirement. In addition, ArcGIS crashs now after adding any layers. ArcGIS Desktop does not require a high end graphics card. It can run with a low end Graphics card or even without one.
I've committed to learning Esri's ArcGIS Pro. Problem is, I use a Apple MacBook as my primary GIS machine and most software from Esri only runs on Windows. Up to this point, this is no big deal because ArcMap is 32-bit and not very memory intensive. It's been running on Parallels for Mac just fine for 2 1/2 years. Things change. Nov 11, 2002 - What GIS do you want to do. There are certain things you can do. I use AI w/MapPublisher for USGS DLG files and MacDEM (OS9 only) for 3D.
What it requires is hardware graphics acceleration to draw all the gradients and shading as well as dynamic display. Have a look at the of Arcgis Desktop? 64 MB RAM minimum, 256 MB RAM or higher recommended. NVIDIA, ATI, and Intel chipsets supported. It requires atleast 24-bit capable graphics accelerator OpenGL version 2.0 runtime minimum is required, and Shader Model 3.0 or higher is recommended.
Be sure to use the latest available driver. There is a big chance that your virtual machine might not meet the requirements, but try running to see if your virtual Machine is supported. The 3D Acceleration Support in VirtualBox is quite limited, according to. My main development machine does not have a separate graphics card. My display is run off the (motherboard's) onboard display driver. And ArcMap runs fine on it. What I meant was that ArcMap does not require a heavy duty graphics card.
It can run fine, as long as Hardware acceleration in enabled (which onboard graphics can do). Virtual box does not have hardware acceleration, and hence arcmap has terrible performance. As an aside, VmPlayer does have 3d acceleration emulation, and I have seen reasonable performance of ArcGIS desktop (even arcGlobe) on it. – Jan 24 '13 at 11:19.
