Dear All,
I have barely managed to install Intel Graphics Media Accelerator (GMA)
Drivers because the system is unstable and Windows XP Home Edition HVM
domU keeps crashing with a BSOD after a short while. I have attached
three screenshots of the Device Manager in this email. You may refer to
these screenshots (JPEG images). These screenshots indicate that Intel
integrated graphics (IGD) VGA passthrough with Xen 4.0.1-RELEASE and
pv-ops dom0 kernel 2.6.32.21 is successful (albeit the system is very
unstable).
I have also uninstalled an older version of Xen GPL PV drivers for
Windows XP and installed gplpv_XP_0.11.0.213_debug.msi.
At the moment, the system is very unstable and Windows XP HVM domU keeps
crashing with a BSOD after a short while. It also takes at least three
minutes for Windows XP HVM domU to start booting after the "xm create"
command is executed. Sometimes, Windows XP HVM domU may not even start
after the "xm create" command is executed, so I will just have to keep
rebooting.
I have tried memtest86 scan with 2 passes and the test results indicate
that there are no hardware memory errors. I have also performed a bad
sector scan in Windows XP HVM domU and the results are negative.

Dear Pasi, Intel engineers, and Xen developers,
I have just made and uploaded a video to Youtube. The length of the
video is only 1 minute and 37 seconds. The video demonstrates the
successful bootup of Windows XP Home Edition HVM domU/virtual machine,
indicating an initial successful Intel integrated graphics (IGD) VGA
passthrough, and followed by a BSOD shortly thereafter. The error in
the BSOD is "/IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL/
<http://www.google.com.sg/url?sa=t&source=web&cd=2&ved=0CBgQFjAB&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.tweaksforgeeks.com%2FIRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL.html&ei=VpuLTNGGAoaUvAPH6vQX&usg=AFQjCNHmPolcH-Y1ayBow_q-3Ysd_QIkvw>".
Full details of the error are in the short video clip.

At the time of this writing, there are 24 uploaded videos in my

Thank you very much.

Dear Intel Engineers,
I am unable to get Intel integrated graphics (IGD) VGA passthrough to
work with Xen 4.0.1-rc6-pre, Xen 4.0.1-RELEASE, pv-ops dom0 kernel
2.6.32.19 and 2.6.32.21. The moment the command "xm create <Windows XP
HVM guest>" is executed, the screen immediately goes blank with the
label "NO SIGNAL". It may take anywhere from 3-10 minutes before
Windows
XP Home HVM domU starts booting. The HVM guest will subsequently crash
with a BSOD.
I have posted configuration files, scripts, logs and kernel debug
messages in threads in the xen-devel mailing list in August 2010 and
September 2010.

Please assist.
A couple of questions:
- I assume the IGD is the primary graphics?
Yes, the IGD is the primary display adapter.
- Do you have other graphics adapters in the same machine?
Yes, I have NVIDIA GeForce 8400 GS PCI Express x16 graphics card in
the same machine.
- Can you please paste "lspci -vvv" from dom0.
