Hey !!! Mac !
Glad to see you here!
That's right, we tried to install Win7 Pro x64 and after installation, when the VM restarts to boot on the HDD we had got an error message saying that Windows cannot start. (Dont really remeber the exact problem but it was related to 64bit boot process).
Saturday, I'll try to install my own VM Win7 64bit edition on the Pro to get the exact message.
We followed the process described by Chirpa @page 9 and installed this version of VirtualBox: VirtualBox-3.1.2-56127-Linux_amd64.run found @ http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualb ... _amd64.run
Edit:
We have paid attention to activate "I/O APIC" for the VM as mentionned in the VirtualBox user guide page 45 and Hardware virtualisation support enabled by default. (The VT-x VPID was disabled, that's the default statement).
I'll try on my RNDP to clarify the situation.
