Unable to install Windows XP Pro as guest on Vista Ultimate x64

Installation reaches the screen which prompts Enter if one wishes to continue with Windows install but system stops responding?

Does anyone have any thoughts. Vista has SP1 installed.

Thanks.

Are you certain that you clicked the mouse inside the guest window so that the guest has keyboard/mouse focus before hitting the Enter key? If not, your host still has focus.

Thank you for your response.

When I click the mouse I get the message to hit control and alt to return to the cursor. This happens whether I click it in or out of the window.
