I'm trying to get Windows 7 booting on my Intel Eagle Heights evaluation board. I tried to follow all the ACPI tips to get Window$ to boot but I can't figure out the bug I'm facing. I'm using a checked build version of Win 7 64-bits. When I start the installer, the first text screen is ok (windows is copying files...) then it switches to graphics mode (green progress bar with logo). Less than a second after switching from text to graphics mode : BSOD.
Hi Thomas,
Looks like Windows 7 crashes in the "Windows Driver Foundation" with an illegal memory access. Possibly this is due to an incomplete ACPI implementation for the board.
Yes that what I suspect too but so far I can't figure out which ACPI part could be missing. According to my probe, after the page translation, the guilty address seems to point to valid memory area (DDR).
Please have a look at the kontron/986lcd-m ACPI code for a modular sample implementation that can boot Windows 7 and http://www.coreboot.org/ACPI for more information on ACPI and ACPI debugging.
When I said I followed ACPI tips I mean I refered to kontron/986lcd-m, the coreboot acpi page, and also some tricks disccussed on the mailing list (64-bits alignment, fadt correct size according to version...).
I was hoping someone already met this issue and could give me a clue.
Regards, Thomas
Hi Thomas,
ScottD had a FADT fix for checked build on Persimmon that might be related to your issue.
