Hey,

I'm trying to install an OS under virtual box, Virtual box has installed correctly and is working but when I go to install the OS, It starts to load the installer then I get a BSOD.

I'm running windows vista home premium and I'm trying to install XP with virtual box.

I also tried Windows 7 and the exact same thing happens,

Any ideas?

The easy way, re-create your VM's with the same settings and attach VDI's to them.
