Unable to change directory in VM 4.3.15

Post by kevlow63 »

I am running a Win7 x64 host, CPU = intel i3 with 8GB ram & 500GB HDD. VBox 4.3.15 installs properly but it shows my drive C: & D: as drives E: & F:
However, Vbox 4.3.15 does not change directory to the one where all my ISOs are located.

I couldn't find any postings with problem like mine in the forum. Btw, I'm not a techie and I struggle with most of the technical terms I found in this forum.

Hope someone here can help me.

Thanks & regards

It's not up to VirtualBox to decide what drive letter gets assigned to your hard drive (partitions). That's up to the guest.

I'm not quite sure I understand the above statement. Could you elaborate on it a little bit more please?
