Windows 7 iso

Post by IanMorrison »

Hi. I wonder: what version of Windows 7 iso should I download for my Win7 VM? As for 64-bit, it says that the CPU does not support 64-bit. Please help.

You have to state the exact site. The one you noted does not exist. Please don't download it from some third party website, but from MS directly. It's quite possible they have modified the link to look like you're downloading from MS, but actually aren't.

Try searching the forums first with Google and add the site filter for this forum.
E.g. install guest additions site:forums.virtualbox.org

And what are you going to do about a product key?
Why don't you just purchase a legal copy and be done with it?
