Could you try installing XP again but select *win2003* in virt-manager. This should drop the -no-acpi from the commandline. Alternatively you could check if using: /usr/bin/kvm -S -M pc -m 512 -smp 1 -name windows_test_vm -localtime -no-reboot -boot d -drive file=/home/trash/windows_test_vm.img,if=ide,index=0 -drive file=/home/trash/isos/windows_xp_pro_fr_sp3.iso,if=ide,media=cdrom,index=2,boot=on works.

So the shutdown doesn't work. This might be caused by the -no-acpi.
