This is a guest issue, not kvm issue. See http://marc.info/?l=qemu-devel&m=127439130431895 And indeed, I tried to set up winNT on two other machines here, it fails the same way during boot, with the same STOP: 0x00000003 error (incorrect multi-processor configuration). It has been fixed in service pack 6. There's also a workaround in kvm, to use -cpu qemu64,level=1 (the level is what matters, not qemu64).
Correction. The original bugreport, about 0x0000003E code, is something to do with the windows NT reacting to (slight) hardware change it is running on. This is something outside of scope of kvm - yes, kvm changes, and virtual devices it emulates for the guest changes too, it's just like hardware upgrade (usually leads to reinstall of windowsNT). At least upgrading kvm from -72 to -0.12 does not make windowsNT install performed in kvm-72 to break, it must be some even older than -72 install. The other problem reported in this thread, about 0x000003 error code, which leads to inability to reinstall the system, is also due to windowsNT bug. The recommended course of things is to reinstall windows NT (or find a way to fix the issue inside it without reinstalling), for which -cpu qemu64,level=1 is a work-around for the bug mentioned. After install, either continue using the level=1 suboption, or apply service pack 6, which will fix the bug in the guest. Just to clarify things...
