I misread your mail. CR4.MCE is not turning on as said. I think that it is difficult to do this sort of tests with a real machine. I thinks the following as alternatives. 1) The start of the MCE interrupt handler is tested by using other interrupt. 2) Various error report handling routines are checked by the review. 3) The register handling parts are tested with stub routines in user modes. -- Takeharu KATO
