Re: Constantly get VIDEO TDR FAILURE (VBoxWddm.sys failed)

Thanks all for the replies. Not every problem you encounter inside a VM is caused by the VM. In this case I suggest that you search the web for information on "VIDEO TDR FAILURE". The top hit is a YouTube video claiming to provide a fix, but I don't have the problem so I can't verify anyth...
