I just tried an old Win 7 Ultimate beta (build 7100) I had on my HD. It looks like it supports cpu hotplug. However, I don't see any failures - it seems to work fine. (After running "cpu_set 1 online", the event pops up in the system event log as a UserPnP event, and the CPU appears in the system devices list.) -Kevin -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
