I am currently running CentOs 5.4 and installed a Windows 7 VM through
Virtual Machine Manager.
I also installed the GPLPV drivers for windows 7. I've used both VNC and
Remote Desktop to run Windows 7. I'd like to performance to be a little
better when working in Windows 7.

After looking at this comparision document
http://www.xen.org/files/Marketing/HypervisorTypeComparison.pdf

it looks like I am running the type 2 configuration.

Is there any way to configure my machine for type 1 without re-installed
CentOs?

If I do have to wipe the drive, how do I configure the machine so it's Type
1?

Does the Xen Cloud Platform require you to install an OS first?

TIA
