I deeply appreciate it. I checked the Hyper-V code and it currently does guarantee that these values are unique. When I resend the series, I'll add a comment to that effect. I'll also add a comment to Hyper-V that says that it has to stay that way. I'm not familiar with how Hyper-V works, but I guess you're saying that Hyper-V controls what the guest sees via _SEG as well as what it sees via the instance ID.
