Hello i am using virual box 4.2.12 running on 64 bit windows 7.

this is not guest edition.



I want o install 32 bit ubuntu on virtual box because virtual box is unable to run the 64 bit version. Once I start my machine every seems to work fine.
However the Ubuntu installation procedure never begins. I just get a black screen. Thanks.

thanks for the response mpack. I updated my info.

A VM log file is needed. Please carefully read Minimum information needed for assistance.

i don't understand what a guest log file is. I just installed virtual box with the defualt settings and even though I have 64-bit windows I am unable to install 64-bit ubuntu so I have tried to install 32 bit ubuntu. I have allocated 2048 MB of RAM and 8 GB of Storage memory that is dynamic. I don't know what a guest log file is and do not see how to access this in the help document.

The link explains how to get the log file.

See Online Users Manual for the location of the log file.

it works now for some reason. I between then and now I updated some drivers and downloaded some programs (python, svn, hg, etc..) and now it works. thanks guys. I am not allowed to attach.
