You should always use the latest version of OS X. You can get updates from the Mac App Store (in Mountain Lion), Software Update pane of System Preferences, or from Apple Support Downloads. To find build numbers for specific Mac computers, refer to OS X versions (builds) for computers.
The recent firmware update 2.0 can also play a factor.

All on a nMP and running host Mavericks and running VMs of Mavericks and also earlier versions - and of course can't run Moutain Lion or early natively on nMP's.
