Apparently with current kvm stable (0.12.3)
Windows NT 4.0 does not install anymore.

With default -cpu, it boots, displays the
"Inspecting your hardware configuration"
message and BSODs with "STOP: 0x0000003E"
error as shown here:

With -cpu pentium the situation is a
>bit< better, it displays:

Microsoft (R) Windows NT (TM) Version 4.0 (Build 1381).
1 System Processor [512 MB Memory] Multiprocessor Kernel

and stops there with 100% CPU usage, never
going any further.

Kvm command line is trivial, with -hda
and -cdrom and -vga std (with -vga cirrus
it displays garbage here). The only parameters
of interest are:

-no-acpi - this one has no visible effect
-cpu pentium - tried that with some change
but no success anyway.

I were able to boot and install it just fine
using -cpu host (without -no-acpi or any
other option).

 Microsoft(R) Windows NT(R) version 4.0 (Build 1381: Service Pack 1)
 (C) 1981-1996

where my host cpu is Athlon X2-64 4850e (2 cores).

I tried a few other -cpu values, but no luck - it
either BSODs with 0x3E error, or stops after first
kernel message.

Interesting. Can you try -cpu host with the family/model/vendor etc used by -cpu qemu64?
