![]() ![]() And still the Windows shut down on start as soon as I install the Guest Additions! I am running out of ideas of what to try next - about the only things I can do is:ġ) Not use the immutable image for temp files.Ģ) Not change video memory size in the initial setup. This automatically made VirtualBox use a compatible network adapter (the Intel Pro). I even cut down on Guest Additions, removing the DirectX support. Code: Select all Stopped logging into separate file Output folder: C:Program FilesOracleVirtualBox Guest Additions Version: 5.2.10 (Rev 122406) Previous version: 5.0. VirtualBox is a general-purpose full virtualizer for x86 hardware, targeted at server, desktop and embedded use. Guest system: Windows 7 Beta build 7000 64-bit I selected 'Windows 2008' as the guest system instead of Windows Vista, as Windows 7 is actually much closer to 2008 than Vista. Right now I am down to the unmodified Windows XP SP2 with only the immutable temp disk attached, no software installed at all, no configuration options other than paging file location changed. Installation goes just fine, I reboot, and during the Windows startup, the virtual computer shuts down (VirtualBox UI says "aborted").Īt first I thought that maybe something non-standard interferes with Guest Additions - maybe I removed some critical component using nLite, maybe Guest Additions hate FAR (not that I see any reason for them to do so). Everything runs fine so far, so I reboot, start the guest Windows in Safe Mode and install Guest Additions. Windows 7 Host / 64 BIT Ubuntu 9.10 / 32 BIT Guest VirtualBox 3.14 Everything is up to date on all applications and computer. Download: VirtualBox 5.2.xx (Free) There is a later version of VirtualBox, version 6.x. I perform the basic setup tasks (move temp and page files to an immutable disk, install FAR Manager, set up the desktop etc.). VirtualBox 5.2.xx can install and run both 32- and 64-bit image files. I started with guest Windows XP and run into problems immediately: Windows XP install fine. I have just upgraded to Virtual Box 4.0 and decided to create all my virtual machines from scratch (to get the benefits of new Guest Additions - I was still using version 2.1).
