Hi all, I executed a complete test to identify the problem.<div>Firstly I need to exaplain what I am doing.</div><div><br></div><div>I created a windows xp guest with sp3 , virtio net and spice agent.</div><div>I used virtio-win-0.1-59.iso and spice-guest-tools-0.59.</div>


<div>This is a base image for all other vm xp .</div><div>The base image works fine.</div><div>I used sysprep on the base image and then I created another xp guest on a qcow2 disk  which uses the base image.</div><div>When the new guest starts it does  not get the network card because it asks for drivers.</div>


<div>Confirming the virtio drivers automatic installation (because drivers are present in the base image) and rebooting the guest, </div><div>it can see the virtio network card but it takes a lot of cpu and it cannot be used.</div>


<div><br></div><div>I repeated the test installing virtio-win-01.30.iso drivers and spice-guest-tools-0.3  on the base image.</div><div>The new guest now does not ask to install the virtio net drivers but only the virtio scsi adapter drivers and  it works fine.</div>

                                            Hi, I think the virtio net
                                            driver is released with
                                            spice-guest-tool ...<br>
                                            Is it correct ?<br>
                                            In other words ....<br>
                                            I installed virtio net and
                                            virtio disk drivers
                                            contained in<br>
                                            virtio-win-0.1-59.iso
                                            downloaded from fedora.<br>
                                            Then I installed
                                            spice-guest-tools-0.59.exe
                                            downloaded from <a href="http://spice-space.org/" target="_blank">spice-space.org</a>.<br>
                                            Seems spice.-guest-tools
                                            have their own net driver
                                            ....or not ?<br>
