RE: [Xen-users] RE: [Xen-devel] GPLPV drivers 0.9.12-pre9 upload
Dear James
I removed the offending service as well as other left overs from the Suse
Drivers and now my windows blue screens with
Stop: 0x0000007B(0xf789EA94,0xC0000034,00000000,000000)
I have no idea how to boot Windows in safe mode. Is this possible? How do
you press F8, and if you did manage to boot in safe mode, what then?

Forgot one important thing. /GPLPV isn't required anymore. Use /NOGPLPV
to disable the device drivers, or boot into safe mode which will also
disable them.
