title: Running Chromium OS on Windows using Qemu
body: <p>I'm trying to boot a build of Chromium OS on a Windows 7 machine using Qemu and I'm running into some issues. I've built the OS as per the instructions on the website and have the output file (<code>chromiumos_qemu_image.bin</code>) in the same directory as Qemu. I modified the batch file for running Linux to run the chromiumos as follows:</p>
  
  <pre><code>REM Start qemu on windows.
  @ECHO OFF
  
  REM SDL_VIDEODRIVER=directx is faster than windib. But keyboard cannot work well.
  SET SDL_VIDEODRIVER=windib
  
  REM SDL_AUDIODRIVER=waveout or dsound can be used. Only if QEMU_AUDIO_DRV=sdl.
  SET SDL_AUDIODRIVER=dsound
  
  REM QEMU_AUDIO_DRV=dsound or fmod or sdl or none can be used. See qemu -audio-help.
  SET QEMU_AUDIO_DRV=dsound
  
  REM QEMU_AUDIO_LOG_TO_MONITOR=1 displays log messages in QEMU monitor.
  SET QEMU_AUDIO_LOG_TO_MONITOR=0
  
  REM PCI-based PC(default): -M pc 
  REM ISA-based PC         : -M isapc
  REM -M isapc is added for NE2000 ISA card.
  
  qemu.exe -L . -m 128 -hda chromiumos_qemu_image.bin -soundhw sb16,es1370 -localtime -M pc
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>When I run this a GUI pops up that seems to be attempting to run the OS but it just stays black. I've enabled intel-vt on my machine but beyond that I'm not really sure what else to do. </p>
