I updated my Proxmox system two days ago to the current pve-no-subscription packages. The update finished without any error messages and I restarted the Proxmox server. Right now the following software versions are installed on the server:
Code:
# pveversion -v
proxmox-ve-2.6.32: 3.2-126 (running kernel: 2.6.32-29-pve)

Everything went fine for one and a half day but then the KVM-VM with Windows Small Business Server 2008 had a blue screen with the error message IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

I experienced the same problem some months ago. I solved this by selecting the CPU type "host" instead of "Default (kvm64)".
Does somebody have a hint how I can fix this problem or at least get a more detailed report about the reason of this BSOD. Because I can't find any hint for the reason of the BSOD in the logs of the Windows VM or in the logs of the Proxmox server.
 
Post your VM config.

> qm config VMID
 
The VM config is the following:
Code:
# qm config 100
boot: cdn
bootdisk: virtio0
cores: 2
cpu: host
description: Windows Small Business Server 2008 (64bit)
ide2: none,media=cdrom
memory: 16384
name: server1
net0: virtio=00:08:54:54:DF:D9,bridge=vmbr0
onboot: 1
ostype: w2k8
sockets: 1
startup: down=360
virtio0: data1:vm-100-disk-1,size=940G
virtio1: swap:vm-100-disk-1,size=32G

And yes I performed a kernel update of the host system. After installing all updates I first shut down all VMs and then restarted the host server.
 
do you run latest virtio drivers inside windows?

try to boot in safe mode.

and maybe try default CPU instead of "host".
 
I updated the virtio drivers inside windows and the machine is running solid so far. I hope that the update solved the problem.
