Someone reported this to the list several months ago and apparently it is ACPI related, and someone suggested an upgrade to QEMU 0.8.2. Well, this problem is still occurring for me on a post-0.8.2 CVS snapshot. Command line: qemu -hda vista.hda -cdrom vista_5600.16384.060829-2230_x86fre_client-LR1CFRE_EN_DVD.iso -boot d -m 512 -localtime -usb -usbdevice tablet That's with both a QCOW and QCOW2 format disk image.
