Playing Enhanced CDROM in Windows 95

[captainmoose]

Hello,
I have installed Windows 95 on VirtualBox in the hopes to play an enhanced CD (CD+) I bought recently. Everything works nearly right. The installation manual that came with my CD+ only mentions Windows 3.1 and Windows 95. It only showed and played the audio on my regular computer (Windows 8.1 host), and not the other media/the installation .exe.
When I open Windows 95 and select the drive D:\ (or try to run D:\install as advised in the installation guide) to run it, I get an error message saying the "device is not ready". It also used to show up as Audio CD in the taskbar (although with 00:00 running time), but I do not wish to listen to the CD and would rather like to install and run the media.
I can provide a picture of the CD+ installation guide if that can be of any help.
Please feel free to move or delete this thread if it isn't in the appropriate category.
I am very new to this; How could I make it work eventually?

Thank you in advance

Moved to "Windows Guests".

Post a VM log file please: Right click VM in GUI, select "Show Log", save "VBox.log" (only) to a file, zip file and attach here. Make sure the VM is shut down before you collect the log of the session.

"Showvminfo" output would also be useful: open a console window, navigate to the "C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox" folder (or add it to the command path), and type :-

Code: Select all

VBoxManage showvminfo <"vm name"> --details >vminfo.txt

When the command completes, look in the folder for the "vminfo.txt" file just created. Include this file in the zip.

I'm sorry, I tried several times, but the command line didn't work (it either told me the "file is missing" or "access denied"). However I managed to get the log, which is here. Thank you.

I'm afraid I will need that showvminfo output. Please read the instructions I gave carefully - if this doesn't work then your VirtualBox software couldn't possibly be working either, and bear in mind that this command must be entered on the host.
