Many thanks,
infact during creation of windows vm I have chosen the "windows" option in
vm wizard. 
I cannot guess that the wizard made a "strange" choice using virtio drivers
when for windows is best to use ide and rtl.
Anyway with spice display mouse is unusable so I must use vnc (with windows
7 mouse works)
