Perhaps I should ensure that you realize that, when I tried to get the "Details", my system hung. I could do NOTHING with it -- except to power-down and "cold-boot". Since that point, I have NOT tried again to download and install. I do not know whether (then how) that makes a difference, but it is only fair that I inform you of the entire situation! So, what more can I do to be helpful? Bruce Mac Arthur _______________________________________________ vbox-users mailing list [email protected] http://vbox.innotek.de/mailman/listinfo/vbox-users
