SDK failed to load

Can someone give me a little advice?

Im running vista64 and finally got VB to run the emulator after trying countless solutions, then when it was booting it froze. I restarted VB and got this error:

Failed to construct 'piix3ide'/0! VERR_VD_IMAGE_READ_ONLY (-3205) - Image is read-only.

ERROR [COM]: aRC=E_FAIL (0x80004005) aIID={9511bc54-15ee-4ddf-808e-472aba03809c} aComponent={Console} aText={Failed to open image 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Palm\SDK\share\emulator\images\1.1.0.19\nova-cust-image-sdk67.vmdk' for writing due to wrong permissions (VERR_VD_IMAGE_READ_ONLY).

I deleted the virtualmachine and created a new one and received the same error. anybody have any ideas?

Installing the SDK on Windows – webOSdev – Palm

Note: 64-bit platforms are not yet officially supported; however, there is information about installing on 64-bit Vista and XP in the Forum.

On a side note things like this make me happy I switched to linux. Downloaded two debs and maybe ten mins later I am on my way.

yeah, I've tried just about everything, adding a new key and string value in regedit.exe and even running everything in compatability mode... when I try to run the emulator through the SDK I get the error that virtual box needs to be version 2.2 or greater and then when i try to make a new VM it says that it cant load the emulator image... This sucks!!!
