leblinux wroteDont want to troubleshoot (no time) Its installed now on virtualbox and am fiddling with it :) thanks for your suggestion...
Make sure to allocate more than 1 CPU core to run the machine. I have 8, and i tried running it with 1 and failed. With 2 cores, and 2 GB of Rams, you should not have any problem!
Edit: For some reason, I failed to run Windows 8 with VMware, but succeeded with VirtualBox :)
