Your system may not re-start

MICROSOFT SAID that if your Itanium system stops "abruptly" when it's
running Windows Server 2003 64-bit Enterprise Edition, you might find
yourself with a very expensive bit of tin that won't start again,
despite your best efforts.

The problem happens, claims Microsoft, because of the Extensible
Firmware Interface which does a heap of things at startup to "verify
the hardware".

Or not as the case may be.

Luckily, Microsoft has a hotfix but it says it might need extra
testing. You have to contact Microsoft Product Support Services to get
it.
