Subject: Windows guest freezes with black screen
Date: Tue, 2 Mar 2010 17:33:19 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100302163319.GA23709@nn.nn> (raw)

Hi,

quite often my Windows guest freezes. The window is just black
and it uses 100% CPU. I don't think it's a guest problem, because
I have kernel debugging enabled and a debugger running in another
VM is connected through a serial line. It doesn't show any problems
and when the guest freezes the debugger connection is dead as well.
