Hardware lockups are tricky to solve.  However I can tell you that for 
AMD chips virtualization cannot be disabled in the BIOS.  This only 
applies to Intel chips.  Check /proc/cpuinfo flags in the dom0 to make 
sure that your processor has hardware virtualization support (the flag 
is 'svm' on AMD).

Serial console might be your best bet, in order to capture that "final" 
error, if there is one ...
