Pity. That would have been a nice easy fix...

All I can really suggest now is to try some different CPUID values - if
you can find some old hardware that NT4 runs on there should be a tool
you can run to get the CPUID from that, and then make the Xen emulated
one the same.
Failing that, it's probably time to get the Windows debugger working and
step through the code to find out where it's crashing - if you're lucky
you'll see the assembly language equivalent of:
Get CPUID
Compare to xxx, and crash if not valid
Good luck! It would be nice for Xen to be able to run NT4 domains to be
able to get them off old hardware...
