Confused based on your post. Let's start at the beginning. What are you trying to install as a VM?

Hi,

Two ideas...

1. When you try to login is the keyboard set to the correct language?

2. Don't use the "Typical" configuration option, instead use "custom" in the second step when installing the VM. (Create a New Virtual Machine on the Local Host )

This means a few more steps when installing the VM (much like installing on a physical host) but it also appears to not have the aforementioned side effect on some versions of Windows and internationalisation issues.
