VirtualBox comes with virtual graphics/audio drivers that FreeBSD may have trouble identifying. You now have FreeBSD installed on your machine!

Click “Start” again and the FreeBSD virtual machine should now boot in its configured form. I too would like to see 圆4 support but I can also see that Microsoft's positioning of the product may not require it.Ĭolin Barnhorst Windows 7 Ultimate 圆4 on DIY with 6GB ram.Select “OK” to save your changes and return to the main VirtualBox application. If there is to be a Microsoft desktop virtualization product withĦ4bit guest support it probably will be a different product than just an updated WVPC.

Certainly support for XP Mode will not be maintained after that date.

The real question in my mind is what is going to happen to WVPC support when XP is finally retired in 2014. There is little need for 64bit support if running legacy business software is the goal since 64bit software already runs on Windows 7 without virtualization. That we technophiles can take advantage of it is a plus for us but not in the business XP Mode is only available for Windows 7 Professional, Enterprise, and Ultimate because the product is aimed at enterprise desktops, not consumers. That goal is achieved with 32bit guests since the vast majority of legacy software XP Mode/WVPC is intended by Microsoft to encourage enterprises to adopt Windows 7 by providing legacy software compatibility via virtualization using XP as a guest. Keep in mind that WVPC and XP Mode are business products, not consumer or technoloby enthusiast products.
