Congrats!
I'm trying to do something similar with an Intel DQ45CB board and ATI HD2600XT card. I don't intend to use the integrated gfx. So I should see the screen being blanked out if passthrough works. But I'm not seeing that.
Are your steps mostly similar to those described at http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/VTdHowTo?
I'm running out of ideas on what to try.
Best Rgds,
Alexia

Subject: [Xen-users] Successful PCIe Graphics VT-d Passthrough to
Win32 DomU, Q35 chipset

I am happy to announce that I have successfully (and finally!) been able
to pass a PCIe graphics card via VT-d to a Windows XP HVM DomU.
About time!
Config:
-Intel Q6600 Core 2 Quad-Core, G0 stepping (I think)
-Intel DQ35JO Motherboard, Q35 Chipset, BIOS v.991 (1/9/09), VT and VT-d
enabled
-nVidia 9500GT (for VT-d passthrough - DomU)
-nVidia GeForce2 MX200 (Dom0 console)
-Xen (build: xen-unstable, recent as of ~ 1/25/09 1:00AM-EST)
-Dom0: Linux-2.6.18.8-xen (via xen-unstable.hg)
-DomU: Windows XP (pro, sp3, 32-bit)
Once the VT-d bugs were recently corrected (thank you, xen-devel!),
everything went fairly smoothly. Still very buggy yet (its
xen-unstable!), but overall it works.
Make sure support for the PCI-backend is compiled into the kernel (not
just a module) and that you have your pciback.hide options in grub
(late-binding may work, but I haven't tried).
Good luck!
