question installing XP 64 bit

I have a XP 64 bit CD in my hands and Bochs 2.3.7 on Windows (binary
packages). Test host machine is currently only 32 bit.

The setup starts and runs but hangs at "starting windows".

Readme / documentation / config files doesn't say anything about
activating 64 bit...

Anything I missed?

Bochs 2.3.7 have complete support of x86-64.
There are very small known issues but they cannot be gating for ANY x86-64
code.
The problem both with WinXP64 and WinVista64 is BIOS ACPI requirements.
The ACPI is still black magic for me so I have no idea what WinXP64 needs to
boot but I have a prove that BIOS is the only issue here.
Latest ACPI patch didn't help either :(

Does Vista64 halt with a STOP message 0xA5 (http://imagebin.org/25860) as
described in http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/9/6/68 ?
Unfortunatelly i was not able to find what parameter 0x1000B means. It is not
described at http://support.microsoft.com/?scid=kb%3Ben-us%3B256841&x=17&y=14
(the link does only apply to Windows 2000).
