VirtualBox Microphone Bug - virtualbox

I'm trying to get my Windows 7 computer's built-in microphone to work inside the Genymotion Android virtualizer, but there is apparently a VirtualBox bug - https://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/11133 - Does anyone have a work around?

Go to Settings and then to Audio and there verify the audio drivers installed and the audio controller being used by the virtual box. I think that this problem might be due to the Driver Not Installed issue or the host settings are not configured properly with the host machine and the virtual box.

ERROR FOR INSTALLATION ESXI 7 ON THE VMware Workstation (No network adapters were detected)

I want to use VMware Workstation 15.5.1 to install VMware vSphere ESXi 7 on one VM.
I am using virtual network adaptor which works on my other windows VMs on my vmware workstation( such as AD, and ... ).
I want to install VMware vSphere ESXi 7, and I am getting bellow error :
“No network adapters were detected. Either no network adapters are physically connected to the system, or a suitable driver could not be located. A third party driver may be required.
Ensure that there is at least one network adapter physically connected to the system before attempting installation. If the problem persists, consult the VMware Knowledge Base.”enter image description here
WHY CANNOT I INSTALL ESXi ON VMWARE WORKSTATION?
HOW CAN I ADD MY NETWORK CARD DRIVER TO MY ISO FILE?
I really appreciate if you have any idea on this problem. I am really stuck!!!
There's an issue with the network adapter type being used for some reason. You can change the E1000 adapter to VMXNet3 to resolve the issue.
Alternatively, VMware does provide a pre-built OVA template for situations like this. The 7.0 version is available at the following: link

Windows Phone Emulator not running on Windows 8.1 on VirtualBox on Mac Book Pro

[
My configuration is:
Mac Book Pro running Virtual Box running Windows 8.1,
There I am getting error.
I have checked in Control Panel>>Programs and Features >> Hyper-V: all the components are checked.
Also, I have checked the services (run>> services.msc) all hyper-V services are running perfectly.
Tried with Windows 10 and Windows 8.1, but no luck.
Any Help will be appreciated !
According to the suggestion given, I uninstalled Hyper-V and tried it again, I got this error "Hyper-V is not enabled"
Thanks !
Windows HyperV and Virtual Box are trying to do the same job and will conflict with each other. Since HyperV takes control on boot, you'll need to uninstall HyperV to use the emulator in Virtual Box.

Enable hyper-V on Windows 2012

I have a window7 (32 bit) machine. I installed Virtual Box and created a VM (Windows 2012 {64bit} with enabled VT-x/AMD-V,Nested Paging).
I want to enable Hyper-V on this VM any Idea?
I tried following links but not working for me:
Link1
Link2
but in my case I am using Virtual Box.
How can I enable Hyper-V feature?
Do you want to expose VT-x/AMD-V to the guest system in the VM so it can run Hyper-V inside VM? As far as I know, VirtualBox does not support it, but VMWare does, even in their free VMWare Player.
I have been running Windows Phone 8 emulator in VMWare Player without problems. Yes, it required manual editing of .vmx file, but is works reliably and without any problems at all.
If you decide to give VMWare Player a try, make sure you have VT-x/AMD-V available and enabled on your physical host computer. Then add the following setting to your VMWare machine:
hypervisor.cpuid.v0 = "FALSE"
mce.enable = "TRUE"
and you should be able to start Hyper-V inside your VM.
For more information, see these links:

and some useful topics on VirtualBox forums which explain why the feature is not available on VirtualBox:

I really miss this feature on VirtualBox because I find VMWare Player to be bloated and it slows the host system down much more than VirtualBox does.

Oracle Virtual Box import VMWare Windows 2008 Crash on boot

I was given a VMWare image running Windows Server 2008 which was imported on my PC perfectly fine and works.
I really want to run it on my MacBook Pro and would have to use Oracle Virtual Box as it seems there is no VMWare Player for OSX.
According to the Internet, the strategy for opening a VMWare machine in Oracle Virtual Box is to create a new machine and attach an existing hard drive.
On the Mac I tried this and get into a situation "Windows Error Recovery" which I am unable to recover from.
On the PC I get exactly the same problems with Oracle Virtual Box with that same image as I do on the Mac.
On the PC (as stated) I can run the VM in VMWare BUT if I have already attempted to open the VM in Oracle Virtual Box, the image is corrupted and can't then be opened on the PC with VMWare.
My question is if anyone has any knowledge of what settings need to be changed in Oracle Virtual Box before opening the VM and destroying the image with it.
Many thanks
Kevin
I worked around this issue by attaching the Windows Server 2008 disk image as additional Storage to another VM that was already working (e.g. an IE8 Win7 VM downloaded from Microsoft). You can set the hard disk as master or slave, or switch when booting up the main VM.

Can you install vmware server 2 on the Windows 8 preview?

Apologies if this has been asked already, searching the web reveals lots and lots of threads about installing the Win8 beta on VMware but not the other way around.
I am trying to install VMware Server 2.0.2 on a Windows 8 Preview machine. It appears to install correctly but I cannot then reach the web based homepage to configure virtual machines, i.e.
https://localhost:8333/ui/
gives the error that the "connection attempt to localhost was rejected. The website may be down or your network may not be properly configured".
Has anyone had any success running VMware Server 2.0.2 on Windows 8 Preview? If so were there any gotchas you needed to avoid?
I don't think it will ever be resolved. VMware Server was declared End Of Availability in January 2010; There will be no support for Windows 8.
Your best try would be trying launching the services in compatibility mode, but why would you do that? Why not use the much more advanced VMware Player or VMware Workstation products?
I've found a way to run it on Windows 8.
On my PC with a x64 version of Windows 8, when I installed VMware Server 2, I found there was a service called VMware Host Agent that cannot be run. When I opened the system Service Manager and clicked to launch this service, it gave me the error.
My solution is to create a service with the same command string and set it to start automatically by using the "sc create" command in cmd.exe. And it worked for me!
