(probably was with AMD X2, never tried with phenom before). Btw, in dmesg I have: [ 1500.359224] apic write: bad size=1 fee00030 [ 1500.362508] Ignoring de-assert INIT to vcpu 0 [ 1500.378512] Ignoring de-assert INIT to vcpu 0 but as stated the VM boots fine, thanks!

There are microcode problems in some older BIOSes and updating has known to fix problems. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Marco Menardi (markit) Date: 2008-08-28 00:30 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=113918 Originator: YES Same problem with ntp=0 If you are referring to bochs BIOS, I've bochsbios package version 2.3.7-1 Win2K HAL is PC Uniprocessor ACPI kvm-68 does not compile, can't test kvm-70 same problem dmseg output: (my comments in parenthesis) (loaded module) [336700.174807] kvm: Nested Paging enabled [336700.174807] loaded kvm module (kvm-73) (this after running win2k that crashed) [336736.428383] apic write: bad size=1 fee00030 [336736.428506] Ignoring de-assert INIT to vcpu 0 [336736.453380] Ignoring de-assert INIT to vcpu 0 asgard64:~# Hope this will help further ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Avi Kivity (avik) Date: 2008-08-27 17:24 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=539971 Originator: NO Make sure you have the latest BIOS on your host. Try loading the kvm-amd module with the parameter 'npt=0'. What is the HAL in use in your guest? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Marco Menardi (markit) Date: 2008-08-27 02:30 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=113918 Originator: YES Here a shot of the bluescreen I get.
