Description of problem: Running a previously installed (and running) VM with Vista in it causes Vista to bluescreen very early in the boot process with "STOP: 0x0000005c". Booting the install CD does the same thing. A downgrade to 2.3.8-0.6.git04387139e3b.fc11 fixes this. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.3.8-0.9.git04387139e3b.fc11 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install 2.3.8-0.9.git04387139e3b.fc11 2. Boot installed Vista (or boot Vista install CD) 3. Actual results: Bluescreen early in boot Expected results: Normal boot Additional info:
Same problem for me with Windows Server 2008. After downgrade it works for me too. Windows Server 2003 works without problem. Any chance to fix this?

Any chance to get older BIOS back in Fedora stable?
Same issue here with Vista in QEMU-KVM. I 'solved' it for myself by: yum downgrade bochs-bios-2.3.8-0.6.git04387139e3b.fc11 and added to /etc/yum/yum.conf: [main] exclude=bochs-bios.noarch 0:2.3.8-0.9.git04387139e3b.fc11 Please, just restore the older bios.
Just upgraded a Fedora 11 host today. After rebooting the host, a Win2008 guest didn't boot (BSOD with "STOP: 0x0000005c"), while a Win2003 guest and a lot of Linux guests booted without any issues. Downgrading to bochs-bios.noarch 2.3.8-0.6.git04387139e3b.fc11 made the Win2008 guest boot as well.
Thanks to Kenni Lund for posting this, I had the same problem with Windows Server 2008, `yum downgrade bochs-bios` solved it. And thanks to the admins for letting Google index Bugzilla. I thought this was a Windows problem.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 11 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 11. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '11'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 11's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 11 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
What's the status of this? I'm still having to --exlucde=boch-bios
Fedora 11 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2010-06-25. Fedora 11 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
