Windows 7 ISO images can be downloaded from: https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/software-download/windows7 If you wished to skip 7 and go with a clean install of Windows 10 and use your 7 key, you can get 10 ISO images from: https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/software-download/windows10ISO With regard choosing USB. I choose USB 3 for Windows virtual machines as I have been getting locks when selecting and using the USB 2 setting. The drivers for your Windows guest should/will be primarily VirtIO. These can be downloaded from: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Windows_Virtio_Drivers#Direct_download A note on your previous mail. I have had issues adding USB devices (e.g. USB sticks) in running virtual machines. Removing any USB redirectors fixed it for me.
