You probably have acpi enabled in Windows. This causes massive slowdowns in kvm; the real fix will unfortunately require you to upgrade your hardware. There is a workaround: My Computer -> Properties -> Hardware -> Device Manager -> [Whatever's under Computer, unless it's "Standard PC"] -> Properties -> Update Driver -> Not at this time -> Next -> Install from a list -> Next -> Don't search -> Next -> Standard PC -> Next. "Standard PC" is the noacpi HAL. > Also there's a long period, right after the VM > changes its screen resolution from the 640x480 used for Windows' boot > screen to 1280x1024, where the VM's screen goes all white.
