I did a quick analysis if the flag (doublecheck might be needed).
All systems which WORK CORRECTLY has these guest flags:
x2apic vnmi ept

Systems which fail don't have any of these flags.

x2apic -- improves guest performance by reducing the overhead of APIC access, which is used to program timers and for issuing inter-processor interrupts
vnmi -- Intel Virtual NMI feature which helps with certain sorts of interrupt events in guests
ept -- Intel Extended Page Table
