Hi,
I am running Windows7 x64 in a VM which crashes after starting a certain
game. Actually there are two games both from the same company, that make
the VM crash after starting them.
Windows crashes right after starting the game. With the 1st game the
screen goes black as usual and the cursor keeps spinning for 3-5 seconds
until Windows crashes. With the second game I get to 3D the login
screen. The game then crashes after logging in.
Windows displays this error message on the first crash:

Windows then finishes writing the crash dump and restarts.
I can reproduce Windows crashing every time I start the game while the
VM keeps running without any problems.
When Windows reboots after the first crash and the game is started
again, the message on the following blue screen changes slightly and
stays the same(except for the addresses) for every following crash:

I first thought that this might be related to a certain feature in 3D
acceleration being used, but Futuremark 3DMark Vantage or 3DMark 11 run
without any problems. They run a bit choppy on some occasions, but do
that without crashing Windows7 or the VM.
How can I proceed to investigate what is going wrong?
I am using a qemu-kvm git clone from a few days ago
(d58931037dbb4fbc2fbb33858629d3fabfd1b0d4).
This is my command line:
/usr/local/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 -boot order=ncd -cpu host -vnc
