This error-message comes from vmxassist/vm86.c, line 85 (in the current
version). I can't really say what causes it tho' (other than obviously
that it wasn't meant to happen). It is possibly caused by confusion
between the modes, since Intel hasn't got "paged realmode", they have to
use virtual 8086 mode to run real-mode, which causes some problems when
it comes to mixing real-mode and protected mode... It's most likely
fixable, but it would be necessary to figure out why it happens first,
and I'm not THAT familiar with either the code in vm86.c or the
boot-loader of Windows to know what's going on at this point, even to
have a guess (other than my assumptions above - which may of course be
wrong!!).

The other questions are good, but: Supposedly, if they didn't, there
wouldn't be an error-message from QEMU, as QEMU wouldn't be started if
the there's no HVM-capable processor in the system - "xm create" will
error out long before it gets to QEMU.
