New Win 8 machine on Win 7 host

Post by Liviu »

Hi, I am getting error when trying to install Windows 8.1 on a Windows 7 host, both 64 bit. I am new to VirtualBox, so sorry for my mistakes. As I saw here, I attached the log files. What can be wrong?
P.S. Why attachments must be so small? Even the log is only 204KB (a very small file!) But I couldn't upload it, I had to archive it.

Use the "Windows 8.1 (64bit)" template, not the Win8_64 template.
