Installation error on Win Xp sp2 - vbox 2.1.x

Post by Wolfman »

Hi all,
Installing Vbox I obtain the following error message: "The software you are installing has not passed the Windows logo testing [...] Continuing the installation could impair or destabilize the correct operation of your operating system".

What I have to do?

Yust click the install anyway button. Microsoft provides (a pretty expensive) testing of software to get the Windows Logo.
A lot of (most) software provider do not spend this momey, but that does not mean, that the software does harm your system.
You can just ignore the warning and go on with the installation, if the providing enterprise has a good reputation, and Sun (Innotek) has it definitely.
