fedora 12 KVM virtulization question

[Brian Micek]

I've had the same problem with KVM running Windows and gave up.  I looked 
into it and could not find a good explanation nor a workaround.   Other 
Linux's inside KVM work fine and Windows inside VmWare or VirtualBox on a 
Linux host also runs fine.
