Just for information, there is a "centos-virt" ML.
My VM configuration dumps are here:
https://code.google.com/p/rktmb-samples/source/browse/trunk/xml-vmconfig
you'll find some comparison point to what you get.
My VMs are all routed+NATed (for those). I dont have bridged Windows.
This is my sample invocation when installing a Windows:
sudo virt-install --connect qemu:///system --name win-7-01 \
--ram 1024 --keymap=fr \
--cdrom=/media/500G/ISO/Windows7Ultimate64bit.iso \
--os-type=windows \
--os-variant=win7 --network=network:default --vnc --accelerate \
--force --disk path=/mnt/big/mihamina/Virtual/win-7-01,size=20
--
RMA.
