Re: [Xen-users] BSOD with GPLPV 0.10.0.86 an win2k3sp2

[Ulrich Hochholdinger <uhochholdinger@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,
at least I solved this problem with my great windows admin at my side *grin*

These were the steps to get the windows machine paravirtualized:

- Boot system with /NOGPLPV
- Reset IDE-registry-entries with MergeIde (see: 
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314082)
- Reboot system again with /NOGPLPV 
- After this the windows dialog "new hardware found" appeared
- So for every XEN-Device we reinstalled the gpl-pv-driver (used the dialog: 
don't search for new drivers -> use already installed driver)
- In the device-manager look for exclamation-marks and reinstall driver if 
necessary
- reboot system without /NOGPL
- possibly reconfigure network (you have a new device now!)
- have fun with the paravirtualized Windows 2003 system

Cheers!
        Ulli
