Yeah, I use a virtual machine.

Testing in a VM is very likely fine; threading semantics are generally defined by the OS and not the hardware.
(Of course, a VM installation may have scheduling/timing differences compared to a „real“ installation…
but these can just as well occur between different machines with „real“ installations.)
However, I also have a „real“ Windows installation, so I can test stuff for you.
