I still have problems here:

A: I can not get network support to work with this script (maybe it never worked for me before, i did not test)...

with the following commands it works fine (just a test in a cmd file)...

set vmname=CC-7PE 2010_Box

set vboxmanager="C:\Program Files\Sun\VirtualBox\VBoxManage.exe"

set iso=c:\CCRescue 2010\ISO\cc7pe.iso



%vboxmanager% createvm --name "%vmname%" --ostype "Windows7" --register --basefolder "c:\ddd"

%vboxmanager% storagectl "%vmname%" --name "IDE Controller" --add ide

%vboxmanager% storageattach "%vmname%" --storagectl "IDE Controller" --port 0 --device 0 --type dvddrive --medium "%iso%"

%vboxmanager% modifyvm "%vmname%" --vram 32 --usb on --usbehci on --memory 1024 --nic1 nat --boot1 dvd --boot2 none --boot3 none --boot4 none

pause

%vboxmanager% startvm "%vmname%"

pause

exit

as you can see i set nic 1 to nat...this works fine for me...

Edit: i was a bit irritated by the script interface: why is there an option to select between three networking optione (None,NAT,Bridge) and obove this an option "Use NIC bridge mode..." ? Does not make sense to me...can someone explain ? Thanks!

B: Another Problem is that my vbox manager now shows several virtual boxes that were removed by the script..they still stay in the list...

C: please add the option to set up to 2GB of ram (for some situations this is helpfull...)

D: Adding harddisks (using the script interface) seems to do nothing..i can not see any discs in PE...
Edit: I manually added a HD to the created VM and it shows up fine in PE..so there must be some problem with the script not adding the disks right...

A: !! yep not working here too....
edit: partially answer, check interface pNumberBox2 (I did not touch that since it was the design)
B: I noticed it after your post (and made me smile), Fixed
C: done
D: yep, for a reason it is not added to xml !!

it seems fixes create new things, I guess A: D: left for a very good script..

Well since you know vbox much better than me (and I truely am not a fan of the script, but only participate to only change it from "not working" state to "working"), I would like you to make further fixes/changes/enhancements on script and I will update by following you.

here it is:

edit:
D: works on nonespaced/nonespecialcha folder.... maybe A also related ?!?!.... This is all about design and vbox management. I leave it you guys.
