The hp dl145g3 is running fine... at least i thought it was. When i was installing virtual machines i noticed that the machines reported a cpu freq of 1.3Ghz (exactly half of the speed of the real cpu's). Wondering what was going wrong i checked with the kvm ppl and they said... maybe there

Dear list(s), This is the final patch that got everything working for me with the HP dl145g3. I would like to remind you that this firmware enables the hardware virtualization on the AMD cpu's on the machine. That feature was explicitly disabled by the factory BIOS. Due to an error in the VGAROM
