Thread-topic: [Xen-devel][PATCH]Processor count in ACPI firmware
Hi, Keir, 
      It seems that some version of Windows2000 only support no more
than 15 cpus in ACPI table, otherwise it will cause a BSOD
KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED. This patch decrease the cpu counts in ACPI
table to 15.

KVM also has this issue, see the following link.
