Problems installing Windows 8

Post by Ladydee »

Has anyone installed Windows 8 and if so how was it done. I get the Windows 8 icon from my DVD but it never does anything else after that. I am new to this and would like to do some testing. Maybe I do not have something set up correctly.
Thank you for any help.

Post details, not "does not work".

=> Host, guest, VBOX (exact versions)
=> Hardware, Log file

And yes, lots of people (including me) have Windows 8 running happily under VirtualBox.

See the top posting in the Windows Guests forum.
