I have reinstalled my Windows 8.1 after a major crash.
I just installed VirtualBox 5.0 and the guest editions.
I made a new machine and loaded an old VDI into it. As soon as I clicked the finish or next VirtualBox crashed.
Now when I open VirtualBox it just instantly crashes.

Re: Crash on startup VB 5.0 windows 8.1
Precise error message please.
Also, a VM log. Right click the VM in the GUI. Select "Show Log". Save "VBox.log" to a file. Compress that file and attach it to a message here. Make sure the VM is fully shut down before taking a log.

I did a windows update last night and rebooted just before I went to sleep. This morning it is just working. I assume VirtualBox needed to restart after install?...

It shouldn't... unless another (un)install wasn't finished before, which could be the case if you reinstalled the whole OS and all your programs without rebooting.
