My host OS is Windows 2000 Server.

Previously I was running VirtualBox 1.3.6 and this was working fine. When I upgraded to 1.3.8 I uninstalled 1.3.6, rebooted, installed 1.3.8 and rebooted again. I've tried manually registering the COM dlls under C:\Program Files\InnoTek VirtualBox but this didn't help.

In version 1.3.6 I got a dialog box asking if I wanted to run as Administrator or the logged on user. I previously had it working by running as Administrator. I'm no longer getting this dialog box either.
