Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Kubrick (kubrick_fr) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Booting WXP SP3 fail Initial Comment: Hello. When booting WXP 32bits SP3 with kvm-69, a BSOD appears before the login screen : "Driver unloaded without cancelling pending operations" The system starts properly with the -no-kvm switch or in fail-safe mode with kvm acceleration enabled. I first thought that it was the virtio NIC driver causing problem but it does the same with the Realtech one, and boots with the virtio NIC in failsafe mode with network support. Reverting the SP3 installation back to SP2 makes it work again. Cheers. Kubrick. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Jes Sorensen (jessorensen) Date: 2010-06-18 20:39 Message: Hi, Did this problem get resolved for you?

The driver in question is processr.sys. As a work-around for a previous (old and well known) problem, I had set HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Intelppm\Start to 4 Now, for WXP SP3 to work I have to set *BOTH* HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Intelppm\Start and HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Processor\Start to 4 and it works... What are the side-effects of disabling these drivers ? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=893831&aid=1981866&group_id=180599 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
