Used vmware converter to convert physical machine
Created new vm in vbox and used the vmdk
Boots fine but there is no keyboard response when in windows
Insert CTRL-ALT-DEL from vbox menu doesnt work either
I have installed vbox tools
I have tried connecting a separate usb keyboard and attaching to vm but still no response
Tried using windows on-screen keyboard also
The only way I can send keyboard commands to the vm is to vnc into it
I am running latest version of vbox and expansion pack.
The vm is running from a usb 3.0 hard drive attached to a 3.0 port
I have searched the forum but couldnt find this exact problem referenced
Any suggestions would be appreciated
Thanks

Re: Keyboard Probs with P2Virtualbox
I suggest you use Disk2VHD rather than VMWare converter, since VirtualBox is not VMWare. Google "P2V Disk2VHD site:forums.virtualbox.org".

For others with this issue, I kept messing with it and got it to work by uninstalling drivers and apps related to the physical machine the VM came from
