Deprecated - Microsoft quit updating vm tools in favor of WSL2, it's only a matter of time before this breaks untirely (if it isn't already).

Credits, the original guide which has strangely vanished but can still be found via wayback machine here

This is largely the same as the original but with some updates

Setup a new machine in HyperV Manager. Make sure you choose 'Generation 2' and assign default switch for networking (or whatever other adapter you use). Then go to the new VM's settings, disable secure boot, and attach the manjaro iso to it (at the time of writing this, gnome doesn't work).
Boot up the vm, you'll be meeting with a black screen or the cli will show it stopped around display starting or whatever. Drop into terminal with CTL + ALT+ F2.
Login and type: pacman -Sy && pacman -S xf86-video-fbdev
Then restart the display manager: `systemctl r

Grub Init Tune - Mario Bros. Mushroom Powerup

This Grub Init Tune will make your computer sound like a Super Mushroom every time you turn it on! This only works for the Grub bootloader - this generally means you need to have Linux (or other Grub-based OS) installed.

Here's the code, which goes in your /etc/default/grub file:
