I’m doing anything powerful in Windows so I don’t need much memory. I saw there were CPU requirements for 64 bit Windows and decided to try 32 bit again. I had to press the power button on my Mac to get out of the virtual machine and close it. I didn’t even have a cursor/pointer on my main Mac. Then I gotĬontrol command delete didn’t allow me to kill the virtual machine. In VirtualBox, you click the CD/DVD icon and set storage to “host drive.” After the Windows splash screen, I got “your PC needs to restart.” So far so good. 64 bit did though so I tried installing that. If you don’t have any, see the trial post first.Ĭreating the VM from DVD – failed 64 bit attempt This post assumes a tiny bit of experience with Windows 8. This turned out to be an “adventure” as Staples lost it the first time and there was some trouble picking it up.
I chose to buy a physical DVD so I have it in case I need to re-install it. I need a more permanent solution so I bought Windows 8.
In January, I installed the Windows 8.1 trial on VirtualBox.
