Hyper-V Client is only available on Windows 8 Pro/Enterprise x64 Editions only.
You might be using Windows 8/Windows 8 Single Language/Multi language.

If you want to have Hyper-V, you can purchase the Windows 8 Pro Pack.

MrShowdown is right!

You'll also need to get a 64bit PRO one for the full Hyper-V feature set and be able to create VM's.

    That's basically it.
You might try VMWare's VMPlayer (recommended over VirtualBox), or VirtualBox.

Also, if you want Hyper-V on Windows 8, your CPU must have SLAT support and be 64bit. If you are not using Pro/Enterprise, I'd second Tepid's recommendation of looking at VMware or VirtualBox - they're not type-1 hypervisors, but they'll work.

Actually I found another reason not to use Hyper-V.... no USB Support.
I am trying to work with VMWare Player now. I have used it in the past and have not been dissatisfied.
It is better, more stable than VBox. However, if you just need a VM software, I do recommend VBox as you can find an application that will make it run as a portable software and carry your VM's on an external HDD. Which is awesome.

But again, my first recommendation is VMWare Player.

USB support works fine if you RDP to the machine, but yes, the vmconnect application/viewer does not pass through - there's a reason for this, but suffice to say you would need to RDP to the machine to get USB (and audio) support.

bah, yes I know there is a reason for that. It's not a good one. VMWare gives you the choice and can be disabled.
This is where I do get irritated by MS not providing useful utilities to those who require it, and forces us to go out and buy other software
Which is fine by me, I am not 100% loyal to MS on everything they produce.

VMWare, as an all around VM solution, is an excellent alternative to Hyper-V.

I agree about Player.

However, if you just need a VM software, I do recommend VBox as you can find an application that will make it run as a portable software and carry your VM's on an external HDD. Which is awesome.
The portable version works but with limited support.
Say you need USB devices in the portable VM: then you still need admin access on the pc you're now for installing the necessary drivers and (signed) kernel modules. That's why it will mostly don't work on x64 and/or limited accounts.

The normal version works well enough and is lighter compared to VMware Player. BUT VMware Player has better integration and works better in most cases, especially for beginner users.

RDP works fine if you know how to setup it correctly.
It took me more than an hour the first time: firewall - network problems... :eek: (XP VM on Win8 PRO)

For beginners it will be messy for sure.
Then there is also the network overhead or a bit of a slowdown- delay between pointer movement on screen and clicks (depends on machine I guess).

If you use this sound - USB - graphics configuration in VM's often then you're better with VMware Player but if you need to run things quickly and no sound or USB is needed then Hyper-V is alright.

If you need the performance of using a type-1 hypervisor, none of the others will do. There are drawbacks for doing so (like you've found), but the RDP issues you're seeing would be hardware-specific most likely.

with Hyper-V you have sound, you just have to enable audio over RDP , Anyway Hyper-V is design to work with RDP not directly in the Management Tools, it's suck too much

As I said, I prefer to skip the RDP in VM's because I get less performance (visually) that way.
I may still need some tweaks here, I'm a novice.
If you connect remotely then RDP is the only way I guess.
