I had a problem with Trend micro antivirus software causing a problem finding a component of windows error on startup. I tried reinstalling the OS, (Windows XP). At the end, it would not allow me to activate windows, stating that it was unauthorized. I tried creating a new partition and reinstalling a fresh OS. I get the sam problem.
Whats up with this?

Why ask us? Why not ask TrendMicro.
In any case, what does this have to do with VirtualBox? How is it different from the same problem on a physical machine?

The problem is no longer related to trend. I simply repaired windows installation. Following, I was asked to activate windows, even though it was activated years ago when I first installed it. It will not let me activate. Further, I am finding that my "o" and "0" keys will not work when I am typing in the code, definitely the problem as the coed contains to zero's. I did try setting my function keys to standard.
