Windows XP x64 SP2 KVM Guest Virtio Drivers
Hi Guys,
Does a virtio KVM driver exist for Windows XP x64 SP2? If not, would it be possible to create one / adapt the Server 2003 version somehow? I tried using the Server 2003 x64 drivers (from
http://www.linux-kvm.org/page/WindowsGuestDrivers), but they didn't work.
The drivers would install, but then XP x64 would just blue screen and
never boot up again.
Hoping there's a driver!
Hi,
WinXP 64bit is a strange bird.
Which driver did you tried to install: virtio-net, virtio-block or something else?
Best regards,
Yan.

I was hoping for a virtio storage driver. I'd like to use a virtio disk rather than ide. However, it does not seem to be possible with XP x64 because such a driver does not exist? Also, the viostor driver for Server 2003 x64 does not work for XP x64.

That's strange. While WXP 64-bit is not officially supported, I remember I tested W2K3 64-bit viostor driver on WXP 64-bit SP2.
You said it fails with BSOD. Can you tell me the bug check code please?
Cheers,
Vadim.
