Got Oracle's virtual machine installed. Host is Windows 7 Home premium
and Virtual Maching is Windows XP, needed for older programs that
won't run in anything later. Programs are all simple affairs developed
in Quick Basic 4.5 and Visual Basic 3. Just the executables and run
times. How doe I get the files on the virtual machine. I enabled clip
board sharing and drag 'n drop, both bidirectional, but NG. Can't get
the virtual machine to recognize the D: CD drive or I could just use
that. It reports that the CD is corrupt and can't read it, but I know
it's OK. All very frustrating.
Also how can I get a product key or whatever to activate the XP so I
don't have to reinstall every 30 days ? I wouldn't mind paying for a
liscense etc.
