xenserver

I have two almost identical servers:

Supermicro X8SIL-F Intel x3470 16GB RAM 16GB USB Pendrive

I have tried installing XenServer 6 on both servers but when the server then attempts to boot it hangs at the loading screen:

If I attempt to validate at the beginning of the installation i get the following error(s):

Yet i've checked the md5 hash is spot on and i've tried from virtual disc, physical disc, http and nfs all yield the same result!

What's going on?

Thanks
