I worked around the issue by installing Virtual Box inside XP in Virtual PC. It will do as an interim solution. Just wanted to test my changes to my AC'97 driver. Even worked in 'integrated' mode which was neat, other than lack of sound.

However, unlike others, I just use it mainly for driver development for my hobby OS rather than running a full OS distro.

And I did open a ticket. All the guides said to ask on forum or some such before opening a ticket, so that's why I came here first.

For what its worth, this is still around in the RTM build of Windows 7 64 bit while using VirtualBox 3.0.4.
