As far as I remember, kquemu will work only if all conditions are met, that is if the service can start successfully.
 
I don`t know what the result will be regarding you problem, but you should be able to copy and update your startup batch file on the laptop local disk not to start the service, without reburning everything.

G'day all,

I have a disk image here of Win2k-SP4 with AutoCAD installed.
It's a 4G QCOW filesystem. I have burned it on a DVD with QEMU and a few other bits and I carry it
around with me alongside a Knoppix disk so I always have my CAD system with me wherever I go.

Now this has worked great for a while, until today where I tried to run it on a P-IIIM Laptop.

The system was installed on an AMD Sempron with kqemu, and it *refuses* to boot past the Win2k
splash screen on the laptop.
It occurs to me that every system I have run it on to date has been an AMD, and I'm wondering as it
was installed with kqemu, if win2k might use/detect some instruction present on the Althon and then
depend on it. I can see no other reason for the image refusing to run on a P-III.

I'm in the process of installing another image completely with -no-kqemu to test my theory (but that
is about 5 hours work), and I thought I'd ask here in addition just in case I'm doing something silly.

I have tried the image with and without kqemu on all machines, and it runs great on any Athlon, but
refuses to boot on my only Intel box (P-III Laptop).

Regards,
Brad
