Because of security reasons the DomU will nog start on this type of machine. See :
http://support.amd.com/us/Processor_...Docs/25759.pdf

'Xen will not allow creation of DomU on this CPU for security reasons. Pass "allow_unsafe" as boot option to Dom0,
when all the guest kernels are trusted or when creating new DomU's.'

So, what i did:

machine:/boot/grub/ vi menu.lst

Search for the title with Xen kernel and at ' allow_unsafe' after the kernel
root (hd0,0)
kernel /xen.gz allow_unsafe
module /vmliniz-2.6.37.6-0.11-xen root=/dev/system/root

And reboot
