Starting and Running Virtul Machines
My machines won't run even though they are in the manager. Anybody have an idea why?

Sounds like a keyboard error.

Do they have enough fuel left? No dead batteries? Maybe a jumpstart from a working VM can start the others.

Re: Starting and Running Virtul Machines
Just a spot more info would help. What version of Virtualbox do you have? Have any of your VMs ever been running before? Did you do something recently that may have caused this problem, like upgrade Virtualbox, run a System Restore, install antivirus, etc.? Are you getting an error message?
