[Qemu-devel] [Bug 921208] Re: win7/x64 installer hangs on startup with 0x0000005d.

[Luigi Tarenga]

Hi,
I almost identical problem so i post here my comment.
I'm trying to use qemu 1.1.0 to run some vm on a RHEL5.8 _without_ kvm 
accelaration
(the host have 24 cpu core, I can't install kvm module on the server, policy 
problem, 
but I still want to exploit some cpu power).

I compiled qemu 1.1.0 with default options (just --prefix=...) and it works 
with linux 
guests (very few try, ttylinux, Oracle Linux, all seems fine.)  but I'm not 
able to start
any Microsoft Windows guest (tried installed guest from virtualbox and iso 
installation cd).
Here the systems I tried:

Windows 2008 R2 x64:
qemu-system-x86_64 -m 2048 -cdrom win2008r2x64.iso -hda 
/work.local/vm/test.win2008.qcow2
blue screen:
*** STOP: 0x0000005D (0x

  Confirmed

Bug description:
  hi,

  during booting win7/x64 installer i'm observing a bsod with 0x0000005d
  ( msdn: unsupported_processor ).

  used command line: qemu-system-x86_64 -m 2048 -hda w7-system.img
  -cdrom win7_x64.iso -boot d

  adding '-machine accel=kvm' instead of default tcg accel helps to
  boot.
