I tried to set a virtual machine with windows 7 from my laptop Toshiba satellite recovery DVD that I had previously created.
The installation procedure was ok. But every time windows starts and thge desktop appear the after 2 sec I have restart... and again and again...
I have virtualbox 4.0.2 on ubuntu 10.0.4 as host.
I am not a fun of open source solutions for many reasons but I decide to give a try... But this is the result. And now? How can someone convince me for the opposite?
(Not to mention that for 2 hours that I have installed ubuntu I often have problems)

Thanks

same thing happens to me here after upgrading from 3.0.2

The case have been closed... The problem was the Toshiba's recovery dvd... It demands so many restarts and so many time until the end that I thought there was problem...!!! The same things happens if you setup from a clear PC (without virtualbox)
But now I have another problem. I have as host Windows 7 (64bit) and as guest windows xp pro. But virtualbox does not allow me to increase the memory allocation for the guest over 1.18 GB. If I do it then when the guest boots it appears a message that the host machine has very low memory and stopped!!! The machine has 6GB RAM!!!!!!
What a hell is this? I can not work with so little memory. I need 2GB at least! If this problem can not be solved virtual box is totally useless for me!


Thanks
