Hello to all!!! I am trying to install XP under VirtualBox on my desktop. During that process, when the XP install asks to either hit F8 to accept or ESC for not to accept (the EULA), when I hit the F8 key nothing happens. Oddly enough, all the other keys seem to work. I was using VirBx 1.5 and upgraded to 1.5.2 since from what I had read there were some other key problems that the upgrade was supposed to fix. This has not fixed the problem. Any suggestions to correct this would be greatly appreciated as I am eager to get WinXP Pro running as a guest under Gutsy (fully updated). I am using a Microsoft wireless kb and mouse. I am a Linux noob so be gentle with me if the suggestions are pretty technical. I'm okay with using the terminal if you step me though it. Still learning, but thrilled with the advances Linux has made on the desktop. It has brought me back to trying to use mostly Linux. Thanks for any help you can provide.
