Re: How to fix correct keyboard recognition in Virtual box guest OS!
AHA!!!! And here I thought it was just me. I am using a dual-boot, lucid and 7, with VB 4.06 and I installed a slipstreamed XP (that I made years ago on an old athlon desktop and no longer use), on my Dell 1545 and the keyboard special keys were all buggered. I was able to find most of the keys, and some weird ones, such as the euro and pound sign (quite useful, I suspect, if I was in Europe), but for the life of me, the "@" sign was no where to be found. The shift-ctrl keys didn't do anything, but the ctrl-alt keys did. Now to see if I can get everything I need working in XP, then nuke 7 and get another 100GB. One step closer.
