I've uninstalled/installed the guest additions coming with 1.6.4 several times, so that didn't solve the problem, :(. > Do you have any special software installed in the guest?

The XP is an EN-US version, and the locale is EN-US with time zone for Costa Rica (Central America)... I'm running under a firewall, but that doesn't seem to be a problem for the bridged network interface... This XP comes with lots of OS patches though, it's a company built OS around XP, with several patches which don't show up under "installed software" (actually the SP* patches don't show up there, but for sure it's beyons SP2), so for there's special software and registry configuration around, but I have NO clue what to look for (neither I'm very XP acknowledgeable to go look for unfamiliar registry for example), :(. > Kind regards, > > Frank > -- > Dr.-Ing.
