Hey James,
I do not have any optical device associated with the VM. What I tried and worked was to update the OS and also the kernel. Since I did an update from 2.6.X base repo kernel to elrepo lt kernel and Centos basic updates and then a reboot it was all resolved. I do not know the reason but it seems like the updated system solved the issue.
Thanks, Eliezer

If so, do you have a readable optical disk in the drive when starting the
Windows7 guest?
If the answer to 1 is yes and to 2 is no and your guest configuration file shows this:
30 <disk type='block' device='cdrom'> 31 <driver name='qemu' type='raw'/> 32 <source dev='/dev/sr0'/> 33 <target dev='hdc' bus='ide'/> 34 <readonly/> 35 <address type='drive' controller='0' bus='1' target='0' unit='0'/> 36 </disk>then remove the line '<source dev='/dev/sr0'/>' and try again.
HTH.
