[one-users] BSOD when deploy Windows XP VM in OpenNebula 4.2

[M Fazli A Jalaluddin]

Hi,

I also have deployed Windows 7 qcow2 format on OpenNebula without the any
problem.
which I used VirtualBox to create the image first and convert it from .vdi
to .qcow2 using qemu-utils.

May I know how to use IDE instead?

PS: I have tried using both qcow2 and raw format but still blue screen. The
Blue screen appears shortly after the Windows XP loading bar splash screen.

Best regards
