Summary: Guest crashes with benchmarking software Sandra and Everest

Initial Comment:
CPU Vendor Type : Intel Core2 Duo (E6300)
Number of CPU : Dual Core Processor (2 cores)
Host Distribution : Debian Etch 32 bit running kernel 2.6.19.1
Guest distribution : 32-bit Windows XP SP2
KVM Version : Running latest trunk SVN Revision 4179

Problem: Sisoft Sandra will crash the guest OS when trying to perform cpu or 
memory benchmarks or system summary etc.

Sandra can be obtained from here : http://www.sisoftware.co.uk/

I have attached a screenshot of the BSOD.

dmesg also shows the following :

kvm: unhandled rdmsr: 17
inject_general_protection: rip 0xf762e709

The following problem does not occur in normal QEMU or in HVM mode in XEN.
