Re: Copy-paste doesnt work

It's sort-of a pain, but if you really need to copy some files over (one at a time, so not too many) host <-> guest, just open the file in a hex editor, copy the whole hex data, and paste it in a hex editor on the other end and name it appropriately. For a small number of files, that sure beats uplo...

Re: Windows 2000 Installation Issues (not the common IDE issue)

Thank you for the suggestion. Unfortunately, that yielded the same results as everything else. Although, thank you very much for pointing me to the "<MachineName>.xml" file. Had you not mentioned it, I would've never found it, and I was hoping to find a file to tweak settings from (instead...

Re: Windows 2000 Installation Issues (not the common IDE issue)

Disabling VT-x/AMD-V is one of the only things I haven't tried yet, but only because the option is grayed out for me. Once I figure out how to change it regardless (via commandline I'm sure it'll end up being...), I'll be back with the results. Thanks for the reply, btw. Edit: So far, no good. Manag...

Windows 2000 Installation Issues (not the common IDE issue)

Hello everybody. I had hoped my first post here would be a happy one, but unfortunately I have yet to successfully install an OS on VirtualBox... lol. There have been various reasons for this (mostly unrelated to VB), but this one seems to be something in VB and not the OS itself. Mainly because I'v...
