WinPE Error

Hi,
I am new to VirtualBox and hoping someone can help with this error.
Here are the particulars:
Host: Ubuntu 9.04
VirtualBox:2.2.0 PUEL
Guest OS:Windows XP

I installed VirtualBox and created a VM.
Shortly after it starts to read the CD to install a Windows XP image I get the following error:

Error restoring WinPE image, rc=3418.

I had the exact same error when I was trying to install this same image under Ubuntu 8.10.
Also, I used these CD's before to build a WIN XP standalone system and it worked fine.

Thanks

Is the cd a full install or a "restore" cd from a manufacturer?

Hi,

The CD is a production image from my work. So full install with specific applications (Lotus Notes, FW, etc) for my work environment.

Did you create a VM harddisk?

Hi,

yes, a 20GB dynamic HD.

Try making an ISO from the CD and use that.

virtualbox.org
