even if I don't pre-load viostor.sys ( option working only on SL 6 )

Yes.

SL6 = Scientific Linux 6?
And you're saying that Windows 7 is much faster on SL6 than on Fedora 14?

Not sure what 'Virtio SCSI' is.
Are virtio-blk and virtio-net drivers installed in the Windows guest?
What does the libvirt XML for this guest look like (from both SL6 and
