I have been trying for a week to install WinXPsp2 on Del LOatitude D820 with 2 core duo 7600 processor (vanderpool), 2 GB RAM using either Yast Xen manager or manually following http://en.opensuse.org/Xen_Full_Virtualization_Example. It gets about 2/3 installing devices, then locks up the machine hard. Only way out is power switch. I have tried this both in 64-bit and 32-bit SuSE 10.1 (remastered) and get the same thing. I tried Fedora FC6 which is Xen 3.0.3 versus 3.0.2 in Suse and the 2.6.18 kernel. It gets a little further where the dialog box comes up for time zone, etc. then locks up the virtual machine. I can get out by killing the virtual machine, so at least it does not lock up the entire computer there. I have also tried this with MSI KN NEO destop motherboard with Athelon 64X2 AM2 socket +3800. I get the same thing except I have not tried Fedora on it yet. On the Fedora FC6 I get the following with xm dmesg that I cannot get on Suse since it locks up the machine.

I would really prefer to stay with Suse as I do not like the Fedora KDE interface much less the Gnome.
