Virtualbox Windows 10 install boots into checkered screen
0
I’m trying to install Windows 10 into virtualbox on Ubuntu 18, however when trying to first boot up it says Press F12 to select boot device and then switches to this screen and flashes a green and blue background 
I’ve tried enabling and disabling 3D/2D acceleration.
Why isn’t it working?

Could you please elaborate a bit on what you are trying to do? Do you have an iso image of Windows 10? How did you configure your vbox?

Yes I do. And I configured it with a dynamic drive. I gave it 1/2 my ram, 2 of 4 CPUs.

Did you try to press F12 at virtual machine startup to see the list of available drives? Did you try to choose W10 iso manually? Would you please post pictures of virtual machine system, display and storage?

Yes. The only one with anything on it is the disc drive. And sure
