Windows 7: RC1 XP Virtual Machine Problem

chluk2425 · 01 May 2009

Hi, I am using 64bit RC1 and everything was fine until I installed the XP Virtual Machine, after I've installed it, I got BSOD with following message:

A clock interrupt was not received on a secondary processor within the allocated time interval

make sure you have the newest bios version for your computer. Check that "virtualization" is turned on for the CPU, (intel and amd call it different things)

I assume that this error comes up when you try to run the xp mode VM for the first time? I would uninstall it and try grabbing a new copy (or check the md5 hash) to be sure you dont have a messed up copy.

it should be enabled as the VPC update cant run without it (meaning XPM mode)...
id say that this looks like a bios update would fix this...
while i do dont think this would change anything can you either enable or disable HPET (high precession event timer)

Enable all the VT options in bios.

I can't see anywhere to enable it in bios...
