download windows 10 iso file for virtualbox

I’m made some progress and have a more specific question now: You will need the WinX product key to activate (via BIOS), will it work or not with the HP one…who knows. Then all you need to do is point VB at the iso image no physical media/usb device needed… The HP recovery media will only work on a physical device… you need the version from MS… I pressed F12 and went through every option there, to make sure I was booting from the correct location. I went to “devices” and selected it, yet I get the same error message, that there is no bootable media. I just now fired up Virtualbox with that plugged in. I planned to use the DVD that came with my computer. Maybe there is a work around there.Īfter failing to make a bootable USB, I went out and purchased an external DVD/CD burner. I attempted in Windows, planning to use rufus, but when it came time to download the iso, it appeared that microsoft was going to attempt to upgrade my Win7 to Win10 instead of sending me the file. I then attempted the same on my old laptop which has Leap dual booted with Windows 7. I attempted on my son’s mac, but had no success despite multiple methods. At first I attempted to download the Win10 iso and burn a bootable USB. The first problem I had was this laptop has no DVD/CD drive, yet a DVD is exactly what HP sends me with the Windows 10 recovery software. I can start a new thread, if that is the main problem. I was attempting to install through Yast.

When I attempt to add them it says that the virtualbox-guest-kmp-default program conflicts with the already installed host version. I haven’t successfully installed the guest additions, which may be relevant. I have installed version 5.1.32-42.1 of Virtualbox. The machine is a HP Elitebook 850 G4 with 256 SSD 16 GB i7 core.

I want to install my Windows OS on virtualbox, but I’m running into all sorts of challenges.
