I will retest the FC17 beta as soon as find another hard drive... having some fun with VT-d right now. I've been trying vt-d on every new machine I've built or come across at work, and finally arrived on a home machine that does it, without having to run a "server" grade mobo and cpu (pretty close though). Specs: Core i7-3820 Sandy Bridge-E cpu 4 core, 8 thread Asus Sabertooth x79 main board 32gb ddr3-1600 ram Radeon HD7970 graphics adapter I'll post up my vt-d success story in a separate thread, but I was grinning ear to ear when it first started working.
