Any idea if installing 4.0 upgrades/replaces 3.X?

Edit: Went ahead and answered my own question: Yes it replaces 3.X Remember to also install the extension pack. My XP VM started up no problem. Needed to update the guest additions of course.

 

Thanks AvinashR for detailed info and update I am downloading my copy...

 

Thanks for the heads up

 

Still no drag and drop between host and guest? I haven't been using VirtualBox for quite sometime now, due to this and a few other glitches that I disliked.

Has it been added already, and I missed it

-Edit-

I believe it was drag and drop that was missing from VirtualBox. I hope I'm not confusing this with something else.

 

Yes, exactly drag and drop is the missing feature. And yes, it's still missing. On their forum they say that it may be implemented in version 4.1 since they already have the base capabilities for it in version 4. We'll wait and see but I'm not holding my breath.
