I haven't switched to VirtIO drivers yet except for the graphics (spice/QXL), so that I could resize the screen, etc. I've always had more success using the drivers obtained from running the spice guest tools vs. the virtio-win stuff. I use: http://www.spice-space.org/download/windows/spice-guest-tools/spice-guest-tools-0.100.exe I did have problems with blue screens at boot (to even get the installation going) until I changed the CPU type to "kvm64" -Greg
