thanks, I hadn't tried to remove and re-add a new NIC, before I do
that I will run device manager with the special

"set devmgr_show_nonpresent_devices=1"

environment variable to see if windows still knows about the NIC, but
thinks it is no longer present (maybe due to some MAC address change,
though it is present if I use virsh dumpxml)

Not sure if this is identical to
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=247122

certainly seems that whenever dom0 is rebooted the Windows domU will
loose it's NIC.
