Can anyone guide me on how to get halo pc [1] to work in VB?
Every time I execute it i get an error saying that hardware acceleration may not be enabled.
I did DL and install directx 11.

It is highly possible that the games requirements are more than what is provided in a virtual environment at this time. Check the full requirements and then check them against those that are provided at this point with VirtualBox. You can see the the 3D specs and what is included in the VirtualBox Users Guide.

Also, installing DirectX after the GA will break the 3D capabilities. DX is shipped with the GA if you install it in safe mode (in normal mode, the files will be replaced by Windows directly).
