Why is a running program not visible or usable? (Answers: 1) (Comments: 0)
I installed VirtualBox last night and used it successfully. Left it running over night and then had to reboot the machine for unrelated issues. Now, when I open the program, it says it's running in task manager, but nothing happens. The program doesn't actually open and I can't use it now. Any ideas as to how I can fix this? I'm using Vista Premium 32-bit.
