Ubuntu 14.04 using VirtualBox 4.3.10 virtual Windows 7

Ubuntu 14.04 is good, but some things can only be done under Windows, so using the virtual machine software Oracle VirtualBox under Ubuntu makes it a good choice to install a virtual Windows system.

first, go to VirtualBox official website (https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads) Look, found no Ubuntu14.04 version of (4.3.12 has been supported! ), then the next closest Ubuntu 13.04 ("Raring ringtail")/13.10 ("Saucy salamander") ! Direct Click in the browser to download, found that the speed is extremely slow, 66M files to 1 hours. My 64-bit system, 32-bit system to change the "AMD64" in the "i386" can be.

Terminal execution: axel-a-N 8 Http://dlc.sun.com.edgesuite.net/virtualbox/4.3.10/virtualbox-4.3_4.3.10-93012~Ubuntu~rarin G_amd64.deb,axel start 8 threads download, full bandwidth download! (Installation Axel:sudo Apt-get install axel)

By the way download the user manual, although the e-version, but sometimes can use the drip,

Terminal execution: axel-a-N 8http://dlc.sun.com.edgesuite.net/virtualbox/4.3.10/UserManual.pdf

according to the official website, in order to later update the Linux kernel does not affect the VirtualBox, need to install dkms! Terminal execution: sudo apt-get install dkms. Discover that Ubuntu 14.04 is already installed by default, then install VirtualBox 4.3.10, terminal execution: sudo dpkg-i virtualbox-4.3_4.3.10-93012~ubuntu~raring_ Amd64.deb, and waited patiently for it to finish. After loading, start the VirtualBox, the first boot failed, and start successfully again! After startup

So, next, we're going to start installing Win 7. Click New, enter a name, select the system type and version.

Next, allocate memory to the virtual system, see the situation allocation, I gave 1792M,

later found that the 800M is enough! You can make a big point and change it later on!

Next, create the virtual hard disk that you used to install Win7, and now create

Create, virtual hard disk file type, default

Next, the allocation method, according to the situation choice, both ways can, here I choose fixed size way

Next, the virtual disk file storage location and size, it is recommended to choose a large partition to store, I set the size of 30G,

If disk space is not large enough, you can return to the front, set to dynamic allocation, and the size can still be set to 30G or greater because

Actual size is when the Win7 system size is installed, how much hard disk space is occupied by the system, which is the benefit of dynamic allocation ,

However, fixed-size performance is better, and if disk space is sufficient, a fixed-size approach is recommended

Create , wait a few minutes, you can create a complete, and if you choose to assign dynamically, you will soon be able to create

Select the newly created Windows 7, click Settings, General Settings advanced, set the following, the default settings are not mentioned ,

The same is true for the following settings

system set up the motherboard, remove the floppy disk hook, the hard drive, optical drive to move to 1, 2 position

display set video card, increase video memory, enable 2D acceleration

storage settings, select the Controller: CD icon entry in the IDE, then click on the right disc icon, select a virtual disc file,

then select the prepared Win7 system ISO image file

Open, set to this finish to determine

start, and then the peace fashion system.

(the CTRL key to the right of the keyboard lets you release the mouse and keyboard from the virtual system!) )

after the installation is complete, it feels good to enter the WIN7!

Then, you can also install VirtualBox's enhanced plug-in, so that the virtual Win7 can be automatically fullscreen, and the mouse keyboard can also be automatically released

Although the process is a bit complicated, but the difficulty is not very small, virtual system eliminates the hassle of repeated reboots between multiple systems.

all right, that's it!
