Hi, I have some difficulties with drivers GPLPV. When I try to install the GPLPV on windows 7 and 2008 R2. I have tried some version: gplpv_Vista2008x64_signed_0.11.0.308.msi gplpv_Vista2008x64_signed_0.11.0.356.msi During installation, I obtained a BSOD about IRQ. I suppose that is block device drivers cause troubles. On windows XP, I try : gplpv_XP_signed_0.11.0.308.msi gplpv_XP_signed_0.11.0.356.msi gplpv_XP_signed_0.11.0.356.msi I obtained for Block device "this peripheral cannot start error 10". What is the best way to troubleshoot that ? Did i forget something anything in file configuration of domu? builder=''hvm'' memory = 2048 name = "Windows2008R2" vif = [ ''type=ioemu, mac=00:16:3e:00:00:13, bridge=br0'' ] disk = [ ''file:/home/VM/Volumes/win2008R2.img,hda,w'', ''file:/home/Soft/ISO Microsoft/fr_windows_server_2008_r2_with_sp1_x64_dvd_617591.iso,hdc:cdrom,r'' ,''file:/home/VM/Volumes/GPLPV.iso,hdd:cdrom,r'' ] boot="dc" sdl=0 opengl=1 vnc=1 vnclisten="127.0.0.1" vncpasswd=''???????'' stdvga=0 serial=''pty'' tsc_mode="default" keymap=''fr'' Thanks for you help and sorry for my english.

Can you try installing the debug version and then send me the output of /var/log/xen/qemu-dm-<domu-name>.log James

I have resoled this problem. The kernel module xen_gntdev wasn''t loaded. It was built as a module.... Now, the install of GPLPV has done successfuly and all is good in device manager with VL drivers. Thanks you !!!!! I have a question, is it still necessary to put GPLPV option at windows boot? (LOADOPTIONS "GPLPV" or /GPLPV) What is the objective of that?

I''ll see if I can test that and make sure GPLPV doesn''t actually crash. I might need a way to indicate this problem to the user though as in the absence of a crash the user might think it was working without knowing it wasn''t.> I have a question, is it still necessary to put GPLPV option at windows boot? > (LOADOPTIONS "GPLPV" or /GPLPV) > > What is the objective of that? >That information is old. You would use /NOGPLPV to disable the drivers but in the absence of any options they would be disabled. James
