VB 2.2.0 won't start, Anymore

Post by Williaint »

It was working when I first tried it. After I quit it and, then tried to open it today, it stopped working. It bounces over 40 times on the dock (I'm using Mac OS X Leopard, BTW), then goes into a state of half/open/half closed "Application Not Responding", and takes a while to force quit.
I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling it 4 times, and still the same problems.
Lil' help, please?

EDIT: Well, it seems to work now. I'm not sure why... Well, I just hope it doesn't happen again!

I had a similar problem where the GUI simply wouldn't start, running VirtualBox from the command line offered no explanation. There was another thread on here where someone mentioned deleting /tmp/.vbox* That seemed to solve my issue.
