Having an issue with Windows Server 2003 in VBox

Post by bob_smith432 »

When attempting to install Windows Server 2003 in VBox I seem to not be able to get into the OOBE as it just says "Setup is restarting..." and gives me an endless bootloop, anything I can do? I already tried re-installing and formatting.

I've once already installed Windows Server 2003 on VBox and it worked fine.

What amount of RAM are you using?
