win7 vm on ep45-ud3r
List,
MB: ga-ep45-ud3r CPU: Intel LGA 775 E7600 C2Duo running at stock speed RAM: 2x2GB at 800 MHz Using latest bios (F11) memtest86+ passes fine. I might have some bad bios settings that are fouling up virtual machine installs. Bare metal installs are flawless. Winxp sp3, Centos 5.4, and OpenSuSE 11.2 all installed and run fine. I moved on to some Virtual Machine installs in Centos and Opensuse. Using qemu-kvm, Winxp sp3 installed/runs easily and quickly. All joy stopped when I tried to install Win7. It fails to install in under kvm in both Centos and Opensuse. Moreover it fails in exactly the same place: when the Desktop opens after the 3rd boot. The kvm log shows the same error 0x000821 unhandled VM exception After trying with 2 different OS installs (& Opensuse has very up-2- date builds of kvm) I suspect that the trouble is in my setup and specifically the bios. So far only C1|CE and EIST are disabled (Adv. Menu). Next I will try and disable the C state values and try again. If anyone else has similar experience good or bad, chime in. -- Mark |
