I wanna try out a virtual machine like Hyper-V but I have a few questions in mind, first is I have the virtualization enabled in my bios for Kaspersky, should I disable it for Hyper-V? 

Should I install another Kaspersky app inside the VM? or is it not needed? since its already in the host machine? and can the Host AV detect and monitor inside the VM already? or would I need the Kaspersky Security Center Application that is for used for managing VM's? or is that only used for workspace environments.

I looked up and Hyper-V seems to allow GPU passthrough, I'll try to play some games on it too, but I need to update gpu drivers on VM too right?

Thanks for reading and your time, have a great day!

In BIOS you have probably activated Intel VT or from AMD. Which is good i have also. Kaspersky needs it. Hyper-V is another virtualization technology which you can easily check in Windows --> Conrol panels if you have enabled or disabled. Recommended is DISABLED.

Yes. VM is like another PC.

Thats logical..But GPU drivers under VM i had always problem. So i installed only Vmware tools (gpu is also included but basic). Because VM doesn't recognize your real GPU. In VM device manager is vmvare SVGA 3D display adapter... In nvidia installator says No nvidia detected.

But would Hyper-V need the intel virtualization be disabled for it to work?

You need disable hyper v when you want Kaspersky VT enabled. 

BTW hyper v is by default disabled. 

Two Hyper-V (hypervisors) in the system are not allowed, if You want to use in W11 Kaspersky Hardware Virtualization setting, then You have to disable in W11, Kernel Isolation feature.
