Windows 2008 Server R2 & Xen Server 6.1

Windows 2008 Server R2 & Xen Server 6.1 doesn't seem to be good friends. Running Win Srv 2008 R2 on Xen Server 6.1 with more than one virtual CPU can get the virtual server into an overloaded state where it sooner or later crasch or freeze because keeps on running at high CPU level. One quick solution is to only use one virtual CPU. Other solutions might be to downgrade Xen Server or install a specific version of Xen Tools (probably 6.0.2 of a certain patch).

My excuse fo this post? Xen Server is Linux :-)
