I have an oVirt 3.2.3 all-in-one environment based on fedora 18 and
oVirt stable repo where I have a windows xp sp3 VM running fine with
spice console.
I think I installed spice-guest-tools-0.3.exe
In device manager the red hat QXL GPU driver is marked as:
5.1.0.10016
15/10/2012

VirtIO scsi driver is
51.64.104.5200
22/01/2013

VirtIO network driver is
51.64.104.4900
29/11/2012

Only limit seems network card that takes a little (1-2 minutes) to
initialize, but I saw the same in the past for physical hw.
I see that this link still works:
http://spice-space.org/download/binaries/spice-guest-tools/spice-guest-tools-0.3.exe

You can try it.

HIH,
Gianluca
