As Paolo suggested, can you please enable Remote Desktop in the guest while under vmw, and then connect to the guest while qemu-kvm is running it? Thanks! BTW remote desktop seems unsupported at the beginning of the installation (in "Windows Preinstallation Environment", <http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc766093%28v=WS.10%29.aspx>). I prepared an AutoUnattend.xml file for the DVD root with WAIK. It does get a bit farther (I can tell it from the VCPU load chart, it's very characteristic), but it still stops somewhere waiting for user input. (A problem with the xml I'm sure.) I can try polishing it a bit more, but if "normal boot" (as opposed to installer boot) fails to initialize the graphics card too (see above), then I'm not sure what we can gain with unattended installation. Maybe 800x600x24bpp would work... The installer seems to set a 800x600 resolution when booting from SeaBIOS.
