Thanks! Using the OVMF provided with the Ubuntu 16.04 packages solved
the issue.

Title:
  QEMU (still) hangs on Windows 7 install

Status in QEMU:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I'm trying to install Windows 7 as guest, but the machine still hangs
  (more precisely, the windows icon keeps flashing, but never goes past
  this stage).

  I think this is a different bug from
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/+bug/1581936.

  Specifically, its happens when the OVMF BIOS is used, and I can't find
  any workaround (in the above bug, by changing the display, the
  installation doesn't hang).

  The most minimal commandline that reproduces the issue is (generic
  format):

  $QEMU_BINARY \
    -drive if=pflash,format=raw,readonly,file=$QEMU_BIOS \
    -drive if=pflash,format=raw,file=$QEMU_BIOS_TMP \
    -enable-kvm \
    -m $QEMU_MEMORY \
    -display std \
    -cpu host,kvm=off -smp 4,sockets=1,cores=4 \
    -cdrom $QEMU_WINDOWS_7_CD \
  ;

  I'm using `OVMF_15214.fd` as BIOS.
