One of the biggest new features in Hyper-V is the introduction of Generation 2 VMs. Generation 2 VMs add capabilities that were previously unavailable on Hyper-V VMs, such as support for SCSI boot and Pre-Boot eXecution Environment (PXE) boot. Also, because Generation 2 VMs use Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) instead of BIOS, they're able to perform secure boots from GUID Partition Table (GPT) disks.
Real improvements for virtual machines.
