Same here. Restored disk image from backup and tried again, and got same 
second time. Left it for a day, still spinning. After destroying it, at 
some point  I got "Can not access boot device" in the middle of that 
pale blue screen. Trying to roll back using recovery point fails. (That 
is the extent of the error message, just restore failed) . It /does/ 
show me the possible points I can revert to though, so it looks like it 
is working until it doesen't. For the record I also uninstalled old 
drivers first. First time around I also removed the Spice-thingy, 
leaving only Qemu. Second time around I left both the Qemu and Spice 
stuff in.
Going back to that image is rather painful, as the disk image takes 
forever to copy to a new partition, and the backup I have is several 
windows-updates old, and insist on running a backup first thing when it 
gets moving :-/ .
Did a chkdsk from the installation-iso (which boots nicely with the same 
config, except for "boot='dc'"). Found some minor nits w\chkdsk. Am now 
trying to boot into safemode minimal. Not even a spinner showing, 
"Times" column in the "xl list" display increases by about 0.4 every 
second, so it is doing /something/ ...
