Thanks for your quick reply. Yes, that was the problem, I changed it
to your suggestion and that fixed the problem.

But now I have another one :) I get the Windows 7 logo with the text
Windows is starting, after that nothing happens. The computer hangs.

What might be the reason for this, is there anything I can do to get
more information about what is happening in the background (something
like a debug mode).

By the way, I have enabled autostart of the iSCSI service of the
Windows 7, so that must not be the problem here.
