Dear Vincent, Thank you for the quick support. Yes, i have connected the driver cd, installed the drivers, but the disk is still not visible for windows. Really strange is, that it doesn't matter, if I use scsi, or IDE (which should work natively), nothing is visible in windows... :( So i have no clue what is the problem. I have many virtual windows guests in my other virtual platform (kvm) and there is everything working fine. > you have to mount the CD drive with the virtuio drivers during the > setup process. > > get to the screen to select disks. do a "change cd" and mount the > virtio ISO. then you have to go "have disk" in setup and add the > drivers.

Dear Stewart, sorry, I was like a normal user... I don't read the error message. The message looks like: https://images.drivereasy.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/img_5751005d9e1c... so that means, not the hdd is missing, the cd / dvd drive is missing. So I have booted up the VM with mini windows xp, and i saw, that the IDE driver is present, and if the scsi driver would be loaded, i thing the scsi driver would be present too. So the problem from installer is not, the missing hdd, the problem is some other hardware driver. I have tried, to add ALL drivers directory to directory from the virtio cd/iso, but the message is the same. So it seems like there would be some emulated hardware, what is not on the virtio cd. What I have tried, I deleted the NIC, and every "extra" hardware component, that is not neccessary. The error is the same. Do you have an idea, wich virtual hardware could cause the problem?
