Windows 8 Enterprise 90-day evaluation



Windows 8 Is Released and I'm trying to install Windows 8 Enterprise 90-day evaluation version on my Virtual Box 4.2.4 version but I'm not able to install it.

I have created Virtual PC for Windows 8 Enterprise 64-bit in Virtual box and mounted the ISO and start installing the Windows 8.  but in the middle where  it is searching for the Hard Drive of the system it is giving me this error, "A media driver your computer needs is missing. This could be a DVD, USB or Hard disk driver. if you have a CD, DVD, or USB flash drive with the driver on it, please insert it now. note: if the installation media for Windows is in the DVD drive or on a USB drive, you can safely remove it for this step."

I have installed Widows 8 Release Preview with the Virtual Box without having any problem but only on this version (Windows 8 Enterprise 64-bit) it is not detecting the hard drive of the virtual PC to install windows 8. see figure 1
