Did this work correctly in 6.1? Does it work if the adapter is a normal card, not virtio?notandor wrote:The network adapter isn't functional when restoring a saved vm. Can only ping it's own ipv4 address, nothing on the subnet. Adapter is a virtio bridged adpter.

Re: Discuss the VirtualBox 7.0.2 release
Ah have to run as Administrraotrlongrootname. sry for that noise. But doesn't work, probably need a pause after the enable and before the route cmd's. pfff
Yes it worked correctly under 6.1. I'll try the 'normal' card: yes! the intel card survives a save/restore. So something to do with the virtio network card?

WindowsXP VM won't start
VirtualBox 7.0.2 can't start my rarely used WindowsXP VM. It shows a startup screen but then stops and reports 'Aborted'. No trouble with VirtualBox 6.1. Zipped log attached. Also see reports by other users in VirtualBox 7.0.2 won't run Windows XP VM.

@mjf: Does the abort still happen if you disable Hyper-v?

Re: Discuss the VirtualBox 7.0.2 release
Hello there,
as stated in a post some days ago, I have a Windows XP VM that ran perfectly for many years in VirtualBox 5.x, 6.x and 7.0.0, but now fails to start in VirtualBox 7.0.2.
When I downgrade to VirtualBox 7.0.0, the same XP VM will immediately start without any issues. The host system is Windows 10 x64. Please find attached the .zip archive including the files VBox.log and VBox.png.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Christoph

Re: Discuss the VirtualBox 7.0.2 release
@mpack: Thanks for the suggestion. But that doesn't seem to be an option for me as I'm using WSL2 and (sometimes) the Windows Sandbox. As far as I understand, those require at least some parts of Hyper-V, true?

Re: Discuss the VirtualBox 7.0.2 release
I have a Windows 11 guest that sometimes will freeze.
The guest is a Windows 11 22H2 Enterprise, freshly created in VirtualBox 7.0.2 with MS ISO October 22.
I use it mainly for VPN to remote systems, so there are a few VPN clients and their network filters.
Also, I don't boot it every day: many times I just save the VM state, and power on when needed.
Sometimes, the VM will just freeze: in that case, the VM Manager GUI is still working,
The only thing I can do is "Power off" an power on again.
My previous VMs with Windows XP and Windows 10 work great instead.
Attached, the VM log saved while the machine was frozen.
I hope you can help me.

Re: Discuss the VirtualBox 7.0.2 release
I very strongly doubt that the devs have abandoned Virtualbox. It usually takes several minor version releases until a major version becomes stable enough.Liz389 wrote:is anybody actually looking into this? Are any more information required?

If you want stable Virtualbox for important VMs that must stay running, stay on 6.1. If you want to provide data for helping get 7.0 going, keep trying 7.0.

Re: Discuss the VirtualBox 7.0.2 release
I personally think this is a big issue for branch 7.x.x in 3d acceleration required scenario since it makes the os (most)completely unusable.Liz389 wrote:So, is anybody actually looking into this?

On 6.x.x you can just disable transparent effect to fix the glitch which is not a big problem for most people.

This isn't limited to Windows XP. It also happens with Windows 2000.mjf wrote:WindowsXP VM won't start
VirtualBox 7.0.2 can't start my rarely used WindowsXP VM. It shows a startup screen but then stops and reports 'Aborted'. No trouble with VirtualBox 6.1.
I'm running 7.0.2 on a Linux host (RHEL 9.0). I've had this Windows 2000 guest since v5.x.x, and most recently it ran perfectly fine on v6.1.40. I never ran v7.0.0, so I cannot say whether it would run on that. On 7.0.2 the virtual machine only gets past the very initial start (white bar at bottom scrolling from left to right, for anyone who remembers a WIn2K bootup sequence), and then freezes on a black screen. Normally, the screen goes blank momentarily and then the Windows 2000 splash screen comes up. It never gets to that point on 7.0.2.
Perhaps it is a problem with 32 bit guests?
Re: Discuss the VirtualBox 7.0.2 release
Do you have 3D acceleration turned on? With it turned on I get glitchy graphics, borderline unusable, but the VM stays up. With it turned off the VM will run for a variable time and then freeze like this ^ciamaulex wrote:I have a Windows 11 guest that sometimes will freeze.

Re: Discuss the VirtualBox 7.0.2 release
You saved my day! After enabling 3D acceleration, no more freezing.
And it's been just about perfect, just a couple glitches in MS Edge:
- main window remains totally blank a couple seconds during startup
- The default button on a webpage popup dialog was totally blank
Hope either the freezing or the 3D acceleration will be fixed in 7.0.4!
Thank you very much
