LHC@home

Im new to vbox and have some questions:

I have installed the latest stable boinc + vbox
XP OS installed in vbox

Instruction sais
When you choose VM > Install VMware Tools from the VMware Workstation menu
------------

I cant find any VM entry
Was it already installed at first installation!
How to check

Do I need to have vbox started all time
if I have other projects
or will ex. atlas@home start it when needed?

Many thanks for any good response

Forget the part about VM.
My misunderstanding.

Still wonder if Atlas project can start my VBox by itself.

and one more general quesion
cpu-z sais my Lenovo T410 has 2 cores 4 threads
why can I still run more then 4 jobs at a time
