I too have *another* system running the same versions of everything (but different hardware) and there it's working OK. I just wondered if there were any known problems. I suspect it may well be a Windows XP issue, a Google search turns up lots of people with the same problem on 'real' Windows XP systems. An earlier XP snapshot on the same system works OK too. -- Chris Green _______________________________________________ vbox-users mailing list vbox-users@virtualbox.org http://vbox.innotek.de/mailman/listinfo/vbox-users
