When I added new range above 4GB in _CRS the problem has gone. QWordMemory (ResourceProducer, PosDecode, MinFixed, MaxFixed, NonCacheable, ReadWrite, 0x, // Address Space Granularity 0x1,// Address Range Minimum 0x3,// Address Range Maximum 0x, // Address Translation Offset 0x4,// Address Length ,, , AddressRangeMemory, TypeStatic) The only big problem with this range - as soon as I have more than 3GB of RAM, windows will boot in BSOD. The problem relates to memory range intersection. Unfortunately it is not possible to predict how many GB of RAM the virtual machine could have - so it's difficult to specify a particular region. Do you have any ideas what can be done to solve this problem? Regards, Alexey Two possible ideas: 1. Pass the value in from qemu Do you mean to create the 64bit region dynamically? I've tried to obtain RAM size somehow inside DSL code, but the ACPI spec doesn't tell how to do that. 2. Get a range toward the upper end of the memory, around 1<<40 Yes. This solution works great. And this is very simple as well. Just wondering if it will be good as a complete solution? ___ SeaBIOS mailing list SeaBIOS@seabios.org http://www.seabios.org/mailman/listinfo/seabios

[SeaBIOS] Pause button
Add so you can press the Pause/Break button on the keyboard to pause the bootup so you can read the messages on the screen because it goes so fast. Other BIOS such as AMI and Award can do this. ___ SeaBIOS mailing list SeaBIOS@seabios.org http://www.seabios.org/mailman/listinfo/seabios
