there are bugs in cpus!
so don’t always say “the problem sits in front of the computer” – that’s simply not always true – if the hardware and software leaves the factory – with problems “preinstalled”.
the problem started with the invention of the computer… and it goes on and on and on… an causes a lot of stress.
people are not gods… they make mistakes… when these mistakes accumulate… you have something like tschernobyl happening.
or a 3rd world war…
or a company going out of business because their IT infrastructure has collapsed like a card board house.
MS: “This problem occurs because incorrect interrupts are generated on the computer that uses Intel processors that are code-named Nehalem.
These interrupts are caused by a known erratum that is described in the following Intel documents.”
So if intel is a fair player… they take back their faulty cpus and give us new ones that actually work.
… this problem only seems to happen with the cpu beeing under load.
what tech companies say and suffer
“We confirm the same exact error with 2K8/R2 HyperV servers with 5500 Series Xeons.
The problem seems intermittent and hits us at least every other day when the machines are under load.
We are losing credibility quickly with our customers after selling them on the stability benefits of R2 and the incredible performance advantages.”

what “arrogant” intel says (i don’t understand a word)
AAK1. MCi_Status Overflow Bit May Be Incorrectly Set on a Single Instance of a DTLB Error Problem: A single Data Translation Look Aside Buffer (DTLB) error can incorrectly set the Overflow (bit [62]) in the MCi_Status register. A DTLB error is indicated by MCA error code (bits [15:0]) appearing as binary value, 000x 0000 0001 0100, in the MCi_Status register. Implication: Due to this erratum, the Overflow bit in the MCi_Status register may not be an accurate indication of multiple occurrences of DTLB errors. There is no other impact to normal processor functionality. Workaround:None identified. Status: For the steppings affected, see the Summary Tables of Changes.
what microsoft says
Consider the following scenario:
A computer is running Windows Server 2008 R2 and has the Hyper-V role installed. This computer uses one or more Intel CPUs that are code-named Nehalem. For example, the Nehalem CPU for a server is from the Intel Xeon processor 5500 series, and the Nehalem CPU for a client is from the Intel Core-i processor series. In this scenario, you receive the following Stop error message:
0x00000101 (parameter1, 0000000000000000, parameter3, 000000000000000c) CLOCK_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT
This problem occurs because incorrect interrupts are generated on the computer that uses Intel processors that are code-named Nehalem. These interrupts are caused by a known erratum that is described in the following Intel documents. To view these Intel documents, click the following links:

possible workaround
disable ACPI in bios or play around with windows registry:
You can disable the Advance Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) C-states by using a BIOS firmware option on the computer.
If the firmware does not include this option, a software workaround is available.
You can disable the ACPI C2-state and C3-state by setting a registry key.
To do this, follow these steps:
At a command prompt, run the following command:
reg add HKLMSystemCurrentControlSetControlProcessor /v Capabilities /t REG_DWORD /d 0x0007e066
Restart the computer.
Note The computer idle power consumption will increase significantly if the deeper ACPI C-states (processor idle sleep states) are disabled. Windows Server 2008 R2 uses these deeper C-states on the Xeon 5500 series as a key energy-saving feature.
To continue to benefit from these energy-saving states, remove the registry key that you set in step 1 after you install the hotfix that this article describes. To do remove the registry key, follow these steps: At a command prompt, run the following command: reg delete HKLMSystemCurrentControlSetControlProcessor /v Capabilities /f Restart the computer.
