Hi,

Problem description:
When I try to create a virtual machine, the host bsod part way through the process. From the logs in lookes to fail/hang on the "Creating new VirtualDisckDriver with new VHD" step.

The BSOD error code is SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION : STOP:0x0000003B
When the machine has finished restarting, it looks to have created the vhd and XML files for the vm but it isn't accessable.

I have two server bothing behaving in exactly the same way, so I don't believe it's a hardware fault.

Has anyone had a similar experince? How did you resolve the problem?
