Windows 2008 VMs (32/64/R2) running on Xen that use VMDP drivers need a VMDP
update. The currently available VMDP drivers do not recognize the new viridian
cpuid strings. By not recognizing the viridian cpuid strings, the VMDP drivers
fail to load. The VM will still be able to boot up and function utilizing the
emulated qemu devices.
The updated VMDP drivers have been enhanced to also reognize the viridian cpuid
strings and is backwards compatible to pre SLES 11 SP2 hosts.
Windows 2003 VMs are not required to update the VMDP drivers. Windows 2003 VMs
do not use the viridian enhancements.
