I've just uploaded 0.8.5. Please uninstall all the 0.8.4 drivers first
or you'll get BSoD's on attempting the upgrade. I'm sure there's a way
to make this a bit cleaner (eg require a reboot instead of crashing) but
I don't know how at this point.

Download from http://www.meadowcourt.org/WindowsXenPV-0.8.5.zip

Bad, thing is that win2008 enforces singed drivers, so someone have to
deal with this, also win2008 dowsn't seem to have a boot.ini anymore, so
we have to use bcdedit.

I'll have a look on these but sounds ugly.

Thanks
