Xen users - Jan 2011 - Win7 with sysprep

Anyone setup Win7 VM''s successfully using sysprep? We''re
trying to do
this on SLES11SP1 xen host. VM is using a file backed disk. When the VM
tries to boot it gets a white screen instead of starting sysprep. We''ve
tried several host servers and get the same thing on all of them. 

We use sysprep with win2k8r2 without any problems. 

I know I haven''t given much information but any thoughts would be
appreciated. 

Config for VM looks like:
name="win7"
description="None"
uuid="942e58e9-689a-e143-6288-84a07231fadc"
memory=2048
maxmem=2048
vcpus=2
on_poweroff="destroy"
on_reboot="restart"
on_crash="destroy"
localtime=1
keymap="en-us"

builder="hvm"
device_model="/usr/lib/xen/bin/qemu-dm"
kernel="/usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader"
boot="c"
disk=[ ''file:/var/lib/xen/images/win7/disk0.raw,hda,w'',
''file:/XENDATA/ISO/cdrom.iso,hdc:cdrom,r'', ]
vif=[ ''mac=00:16:3e:59:13:18,bridge=br0,model=rtl8139'', ]


stdvga=0
vnc=1
vncunused=1
extid=0
usb=1
acpi=1
pae=1

usbdevice=''tablet''

serial="pty"



Thanks,
James

This really isn''t a sysprep issue. Seems to be more of a win7 issue. We
can''t even image a working win7 machine into a xen VM.
