RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

try with -cpu host, installation finished.
In Windows 8 operating system the NX feature, together with PAE and SSE2, is a hardware requirement for installing the OS; it looks NX bit not include in cpu def for "Conroe";
cpus-x86_64.conf
....
[cpudef]
name = "Conroe"
level = "2"
vendor = "GenuineIntel"
family = "6"
model = "2"
stepping = "3"
feature_edx = "sse2 sse fxsr mmx clflush pse36 pat cmov mca pge mtrr sep apic cx8 mce pae msr tsc pse de fpu"
feature_ecx = "ssse3 sse3"
extfeature_edx = "i64 xd syscall"
extfeature_ecx = "lahf_lm"
xlevel = "0x8000000A"
model_id = "Intel Celeron_4x0 (Conroe/Merom Class Core 2)"
...
thanks,

NX is not the only problem: the model=2 value on the Conroe, Penryn, Nehalem models are too low for Windows 8, and we need to use more realistic values. See also bug 861210.
