Description

Hello everyone,

I just bought a new laptop with Windows 8 x64. I installed VirtualBox, and surprisingly the interface looked horrible. It seems that there is some problem with the Qt of 4.2.12 build (release). The screenshots speaks for itself. Any idea on what could have caused this?

Thanks in advance, Marcos

They look fine to me?

perhaps he means the blue border around the windows?

While I wouldn't say they look fine that is the new improved Windows 8 scheme. Same for server 2012. After all it is really meant for a hand held device and not a desktop PC.

@quickbooks look at the widgets

@ramshankar the widgets!

The widgets looks like old Windows Interface (some looks like motif)!! The look and feel looks like old Windows Apps. I have added and updated the images.
