Hello

Im experiencing serveral issues right now, Im not well Xen experienced -
I tried it first in '06 and staid off from it since last week.

b) I managed to install Windows XP fine, however the performance (I/O in
general) is quite poor compared to VirtualBox.
Can't comment on the rest, but have you installed the gplpv drivers?

The wiki has some details but is quite out of date:

On win2008 I install the OS, do a "bcedit /set testsigning on", reboot, then install the gplpv.
