Step 2 - Download and install latest version of VirtualBox, Download for appropriate OS you are using right now. (Download Link) (If you dont want to use VirtualBox you can alternatively use VMware, google it to get it)

 

Step 3 - Start virtualBox and click New (You might be asked to register at first startup, but it is safe if you cancel the registration)

 

 

Step 4 - Name your VM whatever you like, I named it "Chrome OS", then select the operating system "Linux" from the Operating System drop down menu, and "Other Linux" from Version dropdown menu.

 

 

Step 5 - Now allocate some RAM for your Chrome OS, I allocated 1024 MB RAM.

 

 

Step 6 - Now select "Use Existing Hard Disk" option

 

 

Now, click on the browse button, a new window will open click on Add and then select the .vmdk file you already have downloaded in step 1.

 

 

Click Select and then click on Next.

 

Step 7 - Now click Next to finish the wizard.

 

Step 8 - Now you can play around with other settings too, like graphics memory, audio settings etc, I adjusted the graphics memory to 128 MB from 12 MB

 

 

Step 9 - Click on green Start button to start the Chrome OS, and wait for few seconds to Chrome OS to start. Now all you need is a valid google login to use the OS.

 

 

 

Happy Chroming.
