Guests crashing ever since installing vSphere 5.0 U3

Hi all,

We installed U3 on our ESX 5.0 hosts and now we have some Windows 2008 (non R2) servers that crash daily.  Has anyone ever had guest OS' crash after host upgrades?  I can't recall ever seeing this so I figured I'd reach out.

Thanks.

Thats an odd one. I assume you mean the windows boxes are blue-screening? Only thing I have ever heard of before with windows vms blue screening was related to a cpuid id mask that needed be changed on the vm. what does it blue screen on?
