I am running VirtualBox 4.1.16-78094~Debian~squeeze on

Linux vent 2.6.38-2-amd64 #1 SMP Thu Apr 7 04:28:07 UTC 2011 
x86_64 GNU/Linux

and have both debian and centos guests running fine.  Not having
much luck getting Windows 7 with IE9 from here:
<http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=11575>.
working.

When you unpack the rar acrhive you end up with a 
Windows 7.vhd, and I use that to create a guest image.

When I boot the image I end up with a BSOD, I think, with no 
technical details.  The guest then reboots, and I get the option 
to repair or reboot normally.  The repair takes a while but end
up in the same state on next reboot.

This is on a Lenovo w520.  I have VT-d disabled otherwise
the host os get past setting up devices.  The other setting, I 
think, is called VT VMM or something and that is enabled.

I have tried to disable the VT VMM setting,  and I am pretty sure 
that I tried all the hardware combinations offered by virtualbox 
and it is not making any difference.  I was setting
the same thing issue with virtualbox 4.0.  Tried with 2 and 4gb 
of memory allocated to guest.

Others, I understand from the list, run windows 7, and reviewed 
the first few hundred hits from the list archive and not finding 
anything interesting.  Also reviewed the list of 276 tickets 
matching "guest type is window and description contains windows 
7" and did not see anything obvious.

Any help would be appreciated,
