Windows is picky about hard disk drivers. The initial installation
seems to install some drivers that get loaded early for your disk
hardware. QEMU emulates a different type of hardware than what you
probably have and so it can't find the root disk once the kernel has
booted. If you change the main disk controller on a real machine, you'll
probably have the same problem.

I'm not aware of a way to fix that, unfortunately. I've generally had to
install my windows images from scratch.
