    I have Vista 64 as Host, W7 as Guest in VirtualBox.

    I can't seem to figure out a way to share folders between the two. I have tried the Shared folders option in VB, but doesn't seem to work.

    Anybody have any ideas on a way to 'network' the two Operation Systems?

    You could probably find out by searching the virtualbox forums.

    Cross-posting (posting the same text in multiple subforums) is against the forum rules of Notebookreview.
