This might be related to -td-rtc-hack and/or e1000 as using > td-rtc-hack on 0.11.1 windows crashed too to bluescreen. > With your guest -td-rtc-hack does nothing anyway, so you can just drop it. Although it shouldn't cause BSOD with upstream (it had such bug in the past and I am not sure that 0.12 has the fix). And you are using HPET anyway so -td-rtc-hack should be nop for you. > System does not run any multimedia or so, on top of normal windows > 2008 small business server installation there should be only nagios > client and apache.

Hm, default Windows timer rate is 64Hz, so if nothing happens in the guest you should see at least 256 irq injection per second. In your KVM start output I only see 4655 irq injection per second not 10000. And trace shows that most of them are timer interrupts (vector 209 IIRC). > > Host has swap partition enabled but hasn't swapped once yet, > currently there's over 1GB of free. And how many cpus does it have? BTW I see a lot of instruction emulations. That is strange. Looking at you trace again I see that the bulk of the emulations are caused by mmio to HPET.
