Hang installing video drivers

Post by Haroldo »

I just installed XP Pro on a MacBook
I'm trying to install guest additions, but am hung up at the video driver installation.

I searched and was only able to find this

The 'fix' didn't do it for me. There was nothing hiding and I couldn't click anything
For whatever it may be worth, I thought I had the same problem. It turned out that the WHQL dialog was "hiding" behind the installer window. Once I clicked on that (twice, once for the video driver and once for some other driver after that), the installation completed without problems.
Any ideas, thanks!


EDIT... rebooted and now it works

Rebooting doesn´t solve the problem. Any other ideas?
