Actually you need to provide the guests log file ( as an attachment ). Right click the guest in the main manager and then click show log.

[Antiqueairways]

Thank you perryg for responding. I've looked everywhere on the main window and in the settings window. I can't find anything there. I looked in the program files and I see three items called GUEST, but they are DLL's not logs. Can you provide more information as to were these files can be found? Thanks, Dale

[Perryg]

I already post4ed what to do.

Right click the guest in the main manager and then click show log.

[loukingjr]

Just to clarify, with VirtualBox open but the guest closed, right click on the name of the guest in the left hand column.

Perryg See attached file. Let me know what you think Thanks, Dale

Memory over committed. Add more Ram or lower the amount assigned to guest. Although with 1GB of host RAM I don't see you getting very far.

Thanks Perryg! I'll play with it a little more, it that won't work, I'll go back to my newer computer (which I couldn't get to load XP and perhaps I'll be back in touch if I cant figure that one out. Cheers, Dale

[Antiqueairways]

Ok... trying the older computer did not work. I have a newer one that doesn't seem to want to cooperate either. Attached is the log file. Thanks, Dale

Same problem.

You can see this yourself if you would just look at the log. You can not assign more memory to the guest than the host has available and even then you should not give more than 50% of the available memory to the guest
