    Got it working by enabling virtual harddisk support in AMD BIOS.
    Didnt need to enable "IO APIC" and "PAE/NX".

    Virtual machine 2007 do not like these ISOs

    6.2.7955.0.fbl_srv_wdacxml.110228-1930_x86fre_client-ultimate.iso = BSOD

    6.2.7955.0.fbl_srv_wdacxml.110228-1930_x86fre_client-ultimate_en-us = BSOD

    Hi,

    After I failed to install it in VMware, I used the instructions found at betaarchive.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=18301

    However, I do not have any network support (it is set to NAT, and Windows 8 refuses to connect), and the mouse lag is horrible. I have never used VirtualBox, but I assume it does not have the correct drivers (Guest Additions installation fails).

    Thus, for those with it installed in VirtualBox, what did you do to get networking working?

    Thanks!
