[BSOD 0xc000000d] Can't boot windows with qemu

[Gannet]

Upgrading to latest qemu I found my VM unusable: tried windows 8.1/7/WinPE with the same result: BSOD on boot with code error: 0xc000000d (please, look at screenshot in attachment).

Command running VM:
sudo qemu-system-x86_64 -m 4096 /var/lib/libvirt/images/win8.img (also with '-machine accel=kvm')
Linux: 3.15.10 x86_64
Kubuntu 14.04.1
qemu: 2.1.1 (from ppa:jacob/virtualisation)
qemu-kvm: 2.1.1 (from ppa:jacob/virtualisation)
CPU: Intel C2Q9450

Please try with "-cpu core2duo" or "-cpu host".

[Flavio Elawi (flavioelawi)]

forgot to add other specs:

Ubuntu 14.04
kernel 3.13.0-34-generic
qemu: 2.1.1 (from ppa:jacob/virtualisation)
qemu-kvm: 2.1.1 (from ppa:jacob/virtualisation)

Recently tried QEMU 2.0 and discovered it boots windows ok.

This might be due to old(ish) seabios you're using. It should be 1.7.5 version, not 1.7.4.

[Gannet (ken20001)]

And where can I find it, 1.7.4 version ?

[Gannet (ken20001)]

I meаnt 1.7.5.

[Gannet (ken20001)]

Well, I took it here: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/seabios. Although it's for Utopic and, as noted, also unstable, but you're right. It works ! Thanks.

So, the problem is with the ppa, not qemu. The ppa package does not express dependencies correctly. Closing as invalid.
