I only have one machine with 2 CPU-sockets and both are filled with a real CPU. But, have a read through: http://lists.xenproject.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2005-12/msg00710.html Maybe the VRM you have is dodgy, or maybe you need to disable APIC like the person in the above email. > Your help is greatly appreciate as I am stumped over this. > > Nick. > Which bootloader do you use? Please provide the boot-line/command-line options you use for Xen and the kernel. My grub.conf looks like: ******** title Xen + Gentoo Linux 3.16.5 - Xen auto-starting root (hd0,1) kernel /xen.gz dom0_mem=4GB,max:4G console=vga dom0_max_vcpus=1 dom0_vcpus_pin module /kernel-3.16.5-gentoo dolvm root=/dev/vg_artemis_system/artemis_root rootfstype=ext4 softlevel=xen module /initramfs-genkernel-x86_64-3.16.5-gentoo ******* ignore the "softlevel=xen" part. I have a xen-bootlevel with loading of all Xen domains (VMs) enabled. -- Joost
