well, so we will survive together!!
but, what about Tired of Bronco Bamma?

seems, older 2.00.01 Olly works good on W8

edit: other horrible things, call to GetOpenFileName will load 70~80 DLLs..
will W8 survive??

plus:
Microsoft sued over patents concerning Live Tiles in Windows 8 and Windows Phone

how did you get win8 to work in vbox?

Officially it is not supported, and it wont work...

I will survive bronco bamma also.
Although I have no idea how.

As for win8 in a VM, check your distro for a patch.
If they dont have one, get another that does.
