[Solved] VirtualBox GuestOS not starting

Post by halley »

I've installed VirtualBox OSE version 2.1.4 in my Ubuntu 9.04. I'm trying to create a Windows XP virtual machine from the iso. All is well until I starts it. And then.. nothing happens. Installation does not begin. No error messages or anything.. My processor is AMD Turin x64 and I'm running Ubuntu 32bit desktop edition.
Any help??

Few things to check are did you reboot the host after the install and did you add your login to the VBox Users group?
