All working now, I think some BIOS files were missing. Please close this
bug report.

Title:
  -boot -hda //.//physicaldrivex does not work if it is USB drive

Status in QEMU:
  New

Bug description:
  qemu-system-x86_64.exe -L . -name "RMPrepUSB Emulation Session" -boot
  c -m 500 -hda //./PhysicalDrive1

  just opens a blank QEMU window (no BIOS POSt messages) and does
  nothing

  qemu v 0.15.0
  Under Windows 7 64-bit
  drive1 is a USB Flash drive

  Previous version of x86_64 (Jan 2010) works fine. If replace with new
  version (or RC2 version) then does not work.

  if use harddisk.img raw file instead of USB physical device then I get BIOS 
POST messages and it boots to image OK.
  So appears to be USB or physicaldisk support issue???
