I'm trying to run Hiren's BootCD on QEMU but it throws a hardware error 0x80000021 on a Core 2 Duo, maybe there is some parameter missing to fix that.

$ kvm --version

The boot list is shown, but doesn't matter which option I choose it always gives the same error, I've tried on qemu-system-i386 and qemu-system-x86_64 as well, resulting in the same problem.

I do upgrade and dist-upgrade every day, and I've just tried to run it on 12.10 livecd (of course, without upgrade), unless it was fixed after the release the problem still happens!

Some sites I found with this error says to add the parameter -cpu core2duo or -enable-kvm but it didn't solve the bug.
