    I did the version number by memory which was jaded. The actual thing 
I have installed is "VirtualBox  Grafical User interface  Version 
1.5.6_OSE" and it is fine. I have not installed Windows because I have 
no reason to ever want windows. And if I ever want windows I do have it 
dual booted with Grub.

Karl

ps: I did load the windows after I had several Linux versions loaded.
