Windows 8 Developer Preview in a VM

Well, I managed to download the developer preview (full 64-bit one) and tried to run it using VirtualBox. Unfortunately the standard settings of VirtualBox doesn’t work for this Beta/Alpha/Test version for Windows but fortunately someone managed to figure out how to change the settings to at least get this VM started (without the lovely new BSOD)

Now touch wood everything else in the set up works.
