My main OS is Windows XP. I install VirtualBox and now have Windows 7 under VirtualBox. I install WinPhone7 Emulator and try run it. But all that I can see is window of emulator with text “Windows Emulator is doing a complete OS boot…”. I waited a very long time. I tried to reboot, reinstall the Windows7 and many more. Result of my attempts is zero. It is possible run WinPhone7 Emulator under Virtual Box? What I can do for work with WinPhone7 Emulator without switch main OS?
The emulator doesn’t support running under a VM.
Setup and System Requirements for Windows Phone Emulator
The emulator is a VM itself which is partly what makes this unsupported.
Some people have had varying results running under unsupported environments such as XP, VMWare, Bootcamp… but as yet I’ve not seen anything posted for the VM you mention.
