You must first install the guest add-on's on the guest.
Without them, Windows will not have the correct
driver for graphics, for physical disk drives, for ethernet...etc.

I can install Vbox 1.5.6 on Vista and also create my virtual disk... everything runs smoothly. Howerver, when I "start" my first session and put my installation DVD in, vbox detects and starts booting under mandriva but crashes... i.e. I first get a black screen with only my mouse pointer, and a few a minute or so, a blue screen saying that vista crashed for a given reason... I don't even have time to read to whole 'cause it's already rebooted. When vista is loaded, it says that it crashed and that the reason is my ATI graphics Driver... I've looked up for up-to-date drivers, but it seems like they're the latest.

I've also tried version 1.5.4, but I get the same error.

I'm running Windows Vista (with SP1) on a LG-E300, Intel Core2 Duo T5450 1.66 GHz, 2 GB RAM and a 250 GB SATA hard drive.

Has anyone ever run into the same kind of problem?

Any solutions?

Thanks

    Subject: [vbox-users] vista crashes when intalling guest Mandriva
    One 2008 spring

    Hi,

    windows vista crashes when I try installing my guest Mandriva One
    2008 spring. When rebooting, vista reports that a problem occured
    with my ATI Graphics Driver. I just bought my computer, and it
    looks like all my drivers are up-to-date. Is Mandriva Spring not
    supported by Vbox?!? Any idea?

    Thanks
