Hi,<br>
I just verified that MPICH2 1.3rc2(x86_64 version) works without any errors on 64-bit Windows 7 professional (running as a VM on a Windows Server 2008 R2 server) with 1/4 virtual processors.<br>
I installed MPICH2 using an admin command prompt (msiexec /i mpich2-1.3rc2-win-x86-64.msi) and allowed exception for smpd when windows firewall popped up during the installation.<br>
Uninstall MPICH2 1.2.1p1 and install the latest 1.3rc2 version and let us know if that works.<br>
Do you have any special settings for your VM ? Can you give us more details on the setup (host machine, virtual machine settings)?<br>
<br>

Hi,<br>
I am in the process of trying out Win 7 64-bit VM at our lab. I will update you soon on my findings.<br>
<br>
(PS: Tested WinXP 32-bit/64-bit in VM - both work fine with 1-4 logical processors)<br>
Regards,<br>
Jayesh<br>

No, it was the same number (2), but I did boot the VM with just 1 processor, and there was no change in the problem.<br>

Hi,<br>
Have you configured more logical processors on your VM than available on your host ?<br>
<br>

Yes, I tried both of those things with no luck. Also, no virus scanner is running.<br>

I believe this an unrelated bug because mpiexec then fails with "op_read error on left context: Error = -1" rather than the credentials error. Since this failure is related to process affinity, I wonder if there's a problem relating to my using two processors in my machine, which is a VirtualBox virtual machine.<br>
