I am creating a windows 7 virtual machine. These are my settings and the resulting screen when I open Windows 7 in virtualbox. I do not know how to either avoid the first screen or continue beyond it. Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Best wishes,

You selected to use EFI which is not supported in VirtualBox for a Windows guests. Uncheck EFI and it should install, that is if you have not changed some of the other defaults that cause issues.

Thank you, Perryg;

I did uncheck EFI and restarted. Now I get "Could not read from boot medium! System halted."

Then your install media is bad. Check the md5sum with what it should be to verify.

When you took the screen shot you had the GuestAdditions .iso assigned to DVD drive 0. I would remove that to make sure that the vm is booting from the disk in the host Drive.

BillG, you were correct. I moved the host drive to SATA Port 0 and the machine loaded. Thank you. Problem solved!!
