Alright, so I followed these steps to set up a virtual windows drive
http://www.blog.arun-prabha.com/2007...box-in-ubuntu/
I have 2 problems with this now, the 1st problem is that I cannot get the right-control key to bring back my mouse, and the second problem is that now my ubuntu os will not connect to the internet
I am dual booting windows on a seperate hard drive and can connect to the internet fine through there.
any help would be much appreciated!
