Trouble installing Windows HVM on 3.1

[Johnson, Tony M]

All, 
Whether I utilize the DVD or ISO image, once the initial setup is
completed, rebooted and restarted, 
I get the following pop-up: 
"The file 'asms' on Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2 CD is
needed"

Has anyone experienced and solved this problem using x64? 
Tony

This may be this well-known problem with installing Windows using 
virt-manager, notably after the first reboot the CD-ROM device 
disappears and must be readded manually:

(That's a bug report against KVM, but the same happens with Xen for me).
