Yes, you can just connect to the image and install easily. http://www.addictivetips.com/windows-tips/how-to-install-windows-8-on-virtua lbox/ The above link may help. Note: Make sure your processor supports Virtualization Technology and is enabled. Windows 8 will not work if your processor does not support Virtualization Technology. (Most computers have the technology but it is not necessarily started...You can start it from a setting in your BIOS) Jim -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Salakhetdinov Shamil Sent: Wednesday, June 13, 2012 9:37 AM To: Access Developers discussion and problem solving Subject: Re: [AccessD] OT: Win8 Preview (32bit) on Oracle Virtual Box (32bit) or VMWare Workstation 8 (32bit)? Hi Jim -- Thank you for your information. I have got Win8 Preview ISO image downloaded - does Oracle Virtual Box have a feature to "mount" that ISO image or I have to burn a physical DVD?
