#### Microsoft Hyper-V

Creates a Boot2Docker virtual machine locally on your Windows machine
using Hyper-V. [See here](http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-8/hyper-v-run-virtual-machines)
for instructions to enable Hyper-V. You will need to use an
Administrator level account to create and manage Hyper-V machines.

> **Note**: You will need an existing virtual switch to use the
> driver. Hyper-V can share an external network interface (aka
> bridging), see [this blog](http://blogs.technet.com/b/canitpro/archive/2014/03/11/step-by-step-enabling-hyper-v-for-use-on-windows-8-1.aspx).
