You're probably talking about the QXL video adapter. Virt-manager
won't let you remove it if your guest needs anything that relies on
it (I'm guessing libvirt stops it from doing that, but neither of
them is especially verbose). You can't remove it until you've also
removed the Spice virtual display (which also includes a virtual
keyboard and mouse). If you want to control your VM from the host
past that point, you'll need a VNC or spice server running directly
on the guest, as libvirt can't attach virtual displays on node
devices (like your GPU).<br>
<br>
Disabling the virtual monitor connected to that QXL adapter works
just as well, though, and it ensures that if anything bad happens,
Windows won't complain about you trying to run a headless system
(because it can just use said virtual GPU until your passthrough
kicks in).<br>

<div>I can't seem to figure out how to get rid of the "microsoft
basic display adapter" in windows 10. Cpu-z and device manager
both show my passthrough gpu and the microsoft display adaptor
side by side. I seem to be using the display adaptor by default
because I can't change the resolution nor can i run any games
beyond 3 fps. <br>

<div>Sorry if this is a dumb question, none of the turotials i've
found detail how to go about actually getting windows to use
your gpu over the emulated crap. <br>
