Screen turns red during virtual PC 2007 installation

Post by GT4GTR »

I was trying to install ReactOS on Microsoft Virtual PC 2007, when the screen suddenly turns red at 64%. I tried it again, but it happened at 64% again, and the setup halted, no error, no nothing:

ReactOS doesn't do well on Virtual PC. Try to install it under VMWare, QEMU or VirtualBox.

There are numerous issues when VPC hacks into guest system, thus it makes VPC really unsuitable for testing ROS. There will be no support for VPC and no bugreport from VPC will be accepted, as most of those errors are on VPC side.

Please use the tools listed by budtse and remember to turn on debug output (from serial) if you run dbg version of ROS.

Okay, that was installing 0.3.3, 0.3.0 worked fine, sorry i din't add that. What is that "DejaVuSansMon" anyway? That appears to be the problem.

And also, what does the red actually mean? Is it an error.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but that screams 'FONT' to me...
