Title:
  Windows 2008 datacenter- 64 bit , installation fails with qemu-system-
  x86_64 0.11.50

Status in QEMU:

Bug description:
  Installation of Windows 2008 datacenter- 64 bit fails with 
qemu-system-x86_64. 
  Version of qemu-system-x86_64 is 0.11.50. 
  The installation source is dvd iso. Just after booting for installation of 
the Windows guest, it hangs for sometime and then the installation crashes with 
the error:

  "A problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent
  damage to your computer".

  Below is the command used for creating the guest.
  /usr/local/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 -cdrom 
/home/en_windows_server_2008_datacenter_enterprise_standard_x64_dvd_X14-26714.iso
 -hda /var/lib/libvirt/images/win2008_dc_64.qcow2 -m 3000 -smp 3 -net nic -net 
tap,script=/home/qemu-ifup-latest -name win2008_dc_64 -vnc :1 &

  Disk info of the guest image is as below:
  /usr/local/bin/qemu-img info /var/lib/libvirt/images/win2008_dc_64.qcow2
  image: /var/lib/libvirt/images/win2008_dc_64.qcow2
