Failed attempt to virtually install Win7 inside Kubuntu 10.04 @ my Asus Eee PC 1001HA.

Dear Everybody

Today, I have tried to virtually install Kubuntu 10.04 inside a Kubuntu
10.04 environment - via "Virtual Box", which I quickly installed without
problems from the regular repository. The CD with the WIN7 software that has
been delivered with my netbook, is a so-called "recovery" CD. The OS files
VirtualBox needs to create the guest Win7 OS, are not accessible -
apparently because of some software which makes them inaccessible.
I am using an external "LaCie" CD/DVD drive which works perfectly well for
various other purposes. So, the failure of my attempt to create a virtual
Win7 guest OS has been created by one or more software problems. I am
wondering whether it is possible to find one or a few "workarounds" for
those problems.
 In a PDF document I show screen shots in order to try to make you
understand what goes wrong exactly. Via this link you can find the document:

I hope some amongst you can give me a clue.

Respectfully yours,

Bas Roufs.
