Windows 8 on Virtual Box is glitchy, apps don't start

[mkenyon2]

Not sure what to say. If I click 'Store' I see the splash screen for the Windows Store, then I go back to the Start screen. Sometimes I can get in if I click a dozen times or so... (waiting for it to crash back to the Start screen each time.)

Also, Internet Explorer, both from the Desktop and from the Start/Metro screen get's glitchy. The screen starts flickering, and it seems like it keeps trying to load an 'iexxx.dll'. (I didn't catch the exact name.)

I have the latest VirtBox additions installed.

The VM is win 8 64bit, w/ 2Gb RAM, 2 procs, 128Mb Video ram, 40Gb hard drive on a Dell Latitude E6420, i% 2.4GHz with 8Gb Ram, 64bit.

Any thoughts?
