William, The binary works on my older XP machine. I will post the spect's below. One glich the Virtual Machine pauses on start up saying there is not enough memory. I then go up the the machine menu and hit resume it retarts fine and runs Sage. This is the first time on my old XP machine I have been able to run binaries. I have been uploading my workspaces and all of them seem to work fine. A couple of questions:
1. WinSCP does not seem to work with virtual box ( I don't have the password or log in). How do windows users get their worksheets out of Virtual Box to store? 2. For upgrades do I delete the old sage from VirtualBox and what then happens to my old worksheets? I will continue to work with VirtualBox, the major concern is not losing my work sheets.
