Re: [qubes-users] Windows hanging at starting up screen (changing xen video -> cirrus not working?)
I tried on a diff machine, same win7iso though, same situation. I am thinking it might be the iso, need to get my hands on another win7 iso and try that.

Did you do all the 5 things? Or only 2 of the 5? No log files from debug mode either? (6) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

That stack trace suggests xen/libvirt/qubes-manager state mismatch I've seen happen on rare occasion.

[qubes-users] Windows hanging at starting up screen (changing xen video -> cirrus not working?)
I am trying to setup a win7 template. I started with the: qvm-create --hvm-template win7-x64-template -l green which seemed to work well enough, then tried to install windows (win7 pro x64). When I try using: qvm-start win7-x64-template --cdrom=/home/user/win7.iso It starts up and then hangs (I've tried leaving it overnight, no progress) at the glowing starting windows. I then searched around and found two posts and the github work around of cp /var/lib/qubes/appvms/win7/win7.conf /tmp then mod'ing the line to cirrus then running qvm-start win7-x64-template --cdrom=/home/user/win7.iso --custom-config=/tmp/win7.conf now I get an error: --> Loading the VM (type = TemplateHVM)...
