I guess people don't know how it works. I had no problem downloading and running ReactOS: 1. downloaded the .7z vm, 2. fired VirtualBox 2.0, 3. Clicked on "New machine" 4. Gave it a name (copy/paste from xml file provided) 5. also set the RAM size (copied from XML file, "145 MB" ) 6. Selected on the drop-down OS type "other/unknown" 7. In the "Virtual hard disk" setup screen I clicked on the "Existing" button 8. I got a list of vdi files already configured on my virtualbox, I clicked on "ADD" 9. I maneuvered with the file requester until I found the "ReactOS 0.3.3.b.vdi" file, clicked on it and selected "Open" 10. From the list of known vdi files I highlighted ReactOS 0.3.3.b.vdi, and clicked in "select" 11. The VM was ready, I ran it and... ReactOS started! I don't get it how people can still say it doesn't work. FC
