I got VB running in openSUSE 11.0 but whe i try to install win XP 5.1.2600.0 during installation the following error messages appear (Translation to english might be awkward. sorry.)

First message, first window:
"An error has occurred that prevents installation from being continued. A component required for installation could not be installed."

...And the second message in "System istallation protocol" window:
"Error:
Error occurred during installation (Invalid system date time, Errorcode 800b0101)
Make sure, computer date and time are correct and restart setup. Check BIOS settings on system start.

Severe error:
Product catalogs could not be installed
..."

I tried to change the system time format by adding the following line into grub bootmenu option, however this did not help.
I already posted in openSUSE Forum without success.

Any help appreciated.

(Board: Asus m3a h/hdmi, bios updated version 5/2008 (latest), CPU AMD Athlon X2 64 4850e).

grub optins entered:

nmi_watchdog=0 nohz=off

I can assume that you're installing XP as a Guest system. The errors you have are mostly caused by a faulty install source. Either the CD is dirty or damages, or the ISO has been tampered with, with the result an unsuccessful install.

Well okay, so i'll try with a diffrent Installation medium. I could try with an linkux as guest.
Thanks for your reply!

okay, that was it! The windows CD was corrupt. I tried a different one and got through the installation.

Thanks a lot!
