Thanks!Īnyone here have any ideas how to extract the key from BIOS?Hi I suspected I was suffering needlessly with my attempts. It is still unanswered.Īnyone here have any ideas how to extract the key from BIOS? I have an active post in the HP forum, asking for other ways to get my key. I've tried snoping around BIOS to see if I could find the key somewhere. So I would need to have Windows installed on the laptop. The only method I see for obtaining the key, requires a. I planned to do the same, but the new HP laptops hide the product key in BIOS. I read in the comments of an ubuntu forum, that someone had used the product key off the bottom of the computer and it activated windows perfectly. The point about the product key is well taken. You will need the WinX product key to activate (via BIOS), will it work or not with the HP one.who knows.I'm loving this solution. I rebooted the whole laptop after the guest additions were installed. I've tried switching the USB controllers from 1.1 to 2.0 to 3.0. I enable the USB device and it still gives me the error message "no bootable media found, system haulted".

I successfully configured the Windows 10 machine, just like I did on the mac. I tested it on the Virtualbox machine on my mac and it recognizes the file and installs Win10 like a breeze.īut when I use the same bootable DVD on my external DVD drive on my new HP laptop with Virtualbox, no success. I finally achieved this by burning the ISO file to DVD on my mac. I also confirmed that I have a bootable version of Windows 10. I found the file in downloads and viola! I chose the second extension package listed at this download site:

How do I get Virtualbox to recognize the bootable Windows ISO from USB/DVD?Īn update on my progress: I successfully installed the guest additions of the matching version by downloading the file from the link below and then adding through the Virtualbox GUI >settings>preferences>extensions> then clicking on the folder to add. 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. 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.
