I have been trying to install VirtualBox for weeks but I always get the windows logo test popup and the popup only gives me the OK button

no "Continue anyway" or "stop installation" button
only the ok button that tells me that VirtualBok

will not be installed,as soon as i click the OK button the installation stops.

Or is there an update or hotfix ? i have never downloaded any updates from microsoft
I disabled automatic updates a long time ago.

Maybe you better take another look at the system requirements, Art. Your RAM might not be up to the task.

Are you installing under an admin account? Use run as if not.

"Best Practices", Event viewer, host file, perfmon, are in my top 10
