Virtual Drive Missing, not really

Post by djplayer »

Using VB 4.2.12 on Win 7 - 8GB
I just installed an SSD, and used the VB a couple of times with no problems.
Now I'm getting an error when I launch VB saying that the virtual drive is not accessible.
But when I launch the client, it works fine.
Here are screen shots:

I've attached the vbox file.

What happened? How do I fix this?

Thanks,
dj

The error message says one of your assigned drives is not available. What do you have assigned apart from the system drive? (The error message covers the Storage section so I can't see for myself).

You most-likely moved this file but did not update the VM settings :
<Image uuid="{78551bbc-c94f-4e78-a66c-f17777515d3c}" location="C:/Downloads/LinuxMint/linuxmint-14.1-cinnamon-dvd-64bit.iso"/>

Yep, that's it.

Ok. I see. I moved the ISO file to the other drive.
No way to modify the drive to point to a correct place... Have to remove it.
But I don't need it now since it's already installed.
Thanks,
