Hi,

that is a bit different to my issue. XP works like a charm but 7 is 
displaying "Device cannot start (Code10)".

My start parameters are as follows:

Win XP:
/usr/bin/qemu \
-monitor stdio \
-spice port=5930,disable-ticketing \
-vga qxl \
-drive file=/home/VIRUAL/burns/burns.img,index=0,media=disk \
-boot c \
-soundhw ac97 \
-m 2048 \
-enable-kvm \
-usbdevice tablet \
-net 
tap,vlan=0,script=/etc/qemu-ifup.br0,downscript=/etc/qemu-ifdown.br0 \
-net nic,vlan=0,macaddr=52:54:00:12:34:56


Win 7:
/usr/bin/qemu \
-k de \
-vga qxl \
-spice port=5934,disable-ticketing
-monitor stdio \
-drive file=/home/VIRUAL/milhouse/milhouse.raw,index=0,media=disk \
-m 2048 \
-enable-kvm \
-usbdevice tablet \
-boot order=cn \
-net 
tap,vlan=0,script=/etc/qemu-ifup.br0,downscript=/etc/qemu-ifdown.br0 \
-net nic,vlan=0,macaddr=52:54:00:12:34:60

Something wrong so far?

Thank you.

Cheers,
Mario
