I'm running XenServer 6.2 with all patches and updates on two boxes. One box is an intel core i7 2600K.. works great.

My latest box is an AMD A10 APU.. and everytime I try to install Windows 7 OS as a guest.. I get to the screen where Windows files start to expand, and suddenly the entire box freezes up.

Is there a log I can check, and or a way to migrate a working Windows 7 image I created on Box 1 over to Box 2?
