Upgrading Vista to Windows 8 on Virtual Box

I still have an old Windows Vista license which I installed on an Oracle Virtual Box machine. However it performs so poorly that it is hardly usable, even on a modern quad core CPU system. Yesterday Microsoft offered an Upgrade from several Windows versions, including Vista, to Windows 8 Pro for 29,90  Euro. I decided to try an upgrade.

We will look at the download and installation process. We actually install the German version of Windows 8 and provide the screens of the dialogs.
