It went very smoothly! I have now added Office and Visio, but I have run into a major problem...shared folders (or the lack of them). I installed the guest additions. Since no 3.0.51 set was available, I used 3.0.6. Then I set up a folder as shared. It shows up in the bar at the bottom of the VB window, but I have been unable to map it or access it in Windows. I have opened the network and the only things there are my computer and "media devices". No VirtualBox share. If I "Map Network Drive" and click "Browse", I also don't see the VB share folder. Am I missing something or is there a problem with shared folders on Windows 7 Release? (I searched the list archives and found nothing on this. I apologize if I missed it.) -- R.
