[VBox-users] Virtual Machine Monitor interface with Host Hardware

Hi Folks, I have an esoteric question that may or may not be appropriate for this forum.  I'm doing a research paper on virtualization and wanted to illicit the groups input.  I've been on the web, but am not finding the sources I need, even using Google Scholar. Here goes: Does anyone have

Daniel, I just encountered a similar problem running Carlson Survey with an embeded Intellicad 7.2 engine. In short, based on me calling Carlson, I entered the following command: hwacceleration and switched the default hardware acceleration value from ON, 1, to OFF 0 and degraded the

Re: [VBox-users] Two questions/problems: clipboard sharing from/to host/guest and date/time lagging on Linux guests

Ken, The easist would be to turn-off sleep mode in your system menu. If you have a SSD drive sleeping and defraging shouldn't be done anyways because you are wasting Program/Erase (P/E) cycles. I've enjoyed setting up my MacBook with VMs, and discovered I only had 31GBs left out of a 512

David, I can not answer your question, but on two unrelated issues: I have never been able to get my Microsoft product keys to be recognized in VBox nor VMware Fusion, and second, I did a Win 10 update last weekend and lost ethernet on the host machine.  In short, found a community post and

Re: [VBox-users] Can't install guest additions 5.0.14 in a win10 guest

Leslie, I have a WIN 10 Hm VM that I have been able to install Guest Additions, however, I had to install them again after a couple of uses, and have noticed that full-screen mode does not activate until I have logged-in and OS has fully booted. For the first time, I'm starting to experiment

Leslie, Can you make a new win 10 vm from an ISO and use a Win 7 pin?  I have a Win10 Home VM with guest additions that is fine, but have not worked with an upgrade from 7. Stephan From: Leslie Jensen To: vbox-users-community@lists.sourceforge.net Sent:

[VBox-users] MS Server 2012 Ctrl-Alt-Del Feature

Hi Folks, I'm setting up a MS 2012 R2 VM, and need to use a guest Ctrl-Alt-Del feature to log on to the instance.  I'm using Windows 10 as host, with VBox 5.0.2.  I captured the mouse, but only got audible clicks when hitting the keys, and tried looking for a Ctrl-Alt-Del toggle on the GUI. I'm

Re: [VBox-users] Why is this VDI files so flipping huge?
