+installation of Windows, pass the iso file to the guest machine and mount it as
+a CD-ROM image. Then, in the Windows guest, open the Device Manager and start
+the driver update wizard. Locate the appropriate device and click to update its
+driver. In the pop-up window, click to browse in the guest machine to locate
+the iso image, and select the driver(s) from it to install.
