qmue/KVM/libvirt Windows 7 Guest with accelerated graphics?

Hello,

I have a Dell Laptop with a Windows 7 Guest in a KVM VM.

I've set the VM up using virt-manager.

I would like to get accelerated graphics, for example by using QXL with the QXL guest drivers.

I downloaded the latest iso from fedora https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Windows_Virtio_Drivers and installed the qxl driver.

This leads to BSOD when booting the VM.

Do I just need to customize the startup parameters for the VM? Is there a fool-proof way to do this?
