[Qemu-devel] [Bug 1091115] Re: windowsXP install in qemu-system-i386 1.3.0 ends with a BSOD 0x7E in acpi.sys

[Michael Tokarev]

It is most likely the seabios bits missing in 1.3.0, namely this change:

http://git.qemu.org/?p=seabios.git;a=commitdiff;h=f64a472a481784231fbf8541825501df411b11d1

You may try this bios file:

 http://git.qemu.org/?p=qemu.git;a=blob;f=pc-
bios/bios.bin;h=3910875311ceaed814f902e9e4e7e29cdf340fc6

at least it works for me on top of 1.3.0 version, and 1.3.0 without
updated bios behaves like you describe.  So I'm marking this as "fix
comitted" for now, waiting for 1.3.1 release...
