Thanks I added it and was able to get the latest version. Seems to be
working quite well. One thing I noticed is at least one program won't
work because of my graphics driver. The message says my video drivers
didn't install properly or are out of date? I guess VirtualBox installs
it's own video driver. Would it work if I installed a real Nvidia driver
in it's place?
