Thread-topic: [Xen-users] crashes windows 2008 server in hvm
I've fixed the problem and am just about to upload -pre11.

If you have (foolishly :) installed the -preXX version of these drivers
on a windows 2008/Vista production system without doing a test on a test
system first, let me know and I'll email some instructions on making it
right again. I have just used the repair shell from the Windows 2008
boot CD and it is amazingly easy to fix things up!
