Or just use QEMU/KVM wirh VirtIO extensions if you don't need hardware rendering on Windows. Problem is most dual-booters I know use Windows to play games with kernel anti-cheat. Not much you can do to virtualize that

Yeah, I can't think of anything I need windows for that doesn't also need a real GPU to be useful.

And even then its only really 1 game, setting up looking glass was as much for tinkering amusement than actual use.
