Topic: Please include drivers for VirtualBox! =)

Hi!

I want to be able to get the drivers for VirtualBox to work directly if I install XP in VirtualBox (version for now is 3.2.4)
I extracted all the drivers (i think that is necessary?) but you know better in this..
You can find them here:

Many Thanx!!!

Re: Please include drivers for VirtualBox! =)

Drivers for virtual machine devices are a HUGE pain because Vbox, vmware, and a few of the minor players use the SAME HWID info.

Unless the VM vendors get together and straighten out their use of HWID info, don't expect pre-loads to be easy.

And as has been said before, ad infinitum, DO NOT bother posting links to drivers for ANYTHING other than the original software publishers or hardware manufacturers web sites.  There is a huge trust issue (which you are free to take personally or not) when drivers are downloaded from other locations.
