The
Kernel of Win7 x64 and Win2k8 R2 x64 are supposed to be the same,
therefore the drivers should work ;-)
I've force-installed in in 2008 R2 in the past and it worked just
fine.
I'll open the bug.

The tools installer should install virtio-serial driver and
spice-vdagent ("RHEV Spice Agent" service) for you. If the service is in
services.msc but it can not be started, you have a problem with
virtio-serial driver.

You can force-install qxl for win 7 64b if you wish to do so,
but the
question is - why do you need graphic driver on server
windows? The
spipce-vdagent should be all you need b/c it will give you
local mouse.
