This is my command line (generated by libvirt).
  /usr/bin/qemu-kvm -vga std -k it -S -M pc -cpu qemu32 -m 2048 -smp 1 -name win
  -uuid 0795d421-0093-9aa9-64f7-682c47149320 -monitor pty
  -pidfile /var/run/libvirt/qemu//win.pid -localtime -boot c
  -drive file=/vms/win/c.img,if=ide,index=0,boot=on
  -drive file=/vms/win/d.img,if=ide,index=1
  -drive file=,if=ide,media=cdrom,index=2
  -drive file=/vms/win/e.img,if=ide,index=3
  -net nic,macaddr=54:52:00:06:11:2e,vlan=0
  -net tap,fd=17,vlan=0 -serial pty -parallel none
  -usb -usbdevice tablet -vnc 127.0.0.1:0 -soundhw es1370

This is the qemu rpm:
  qemu-system-x86-0.10.6-9.fc11.x86_64

XP SP3 fails during boot with INTERNAL_POWER_ERROR when running qemu-kvm, but works
(slowly, of course) with qemu.

XP SP2 is ok both with or without kvm.
