i have found out the reason. apparently you have to also check the the disk that you created in setting up the boot order so windows would recognize it as a bootable disk - something that is unforunately not specified in the guide: [How to Build an Image for Windows Virtual Machines – OpenNebula Customer Portal](https://support.opennebula.pro/hc/en-us/articles/360042898271-How-to-Build-an-Image-for-Windows-Virtual-Machines)
