getting VERR_NO_MORE_HANDLES with latest Beta 2 on Win7 x64

[mcirsta]

The error message when trying to start an Ubuntu 14.04 32 bit VM is :


No more handles available, too many open handles. (VERR_NO_MORE_HANDLES).


Result Code:
E_FAIL (0x80004005)
Component:
ConsoleWrap
Interface:
IConsole {872da645-4a9b-1727-bee2-5585105b9eed}


I should mention that this Beta 2 was installed after uninstalling 5.0.20.

Let me know if you need additional info. Computer has Windows installed and configured by my company ( work PC ).

Change your audio controller from ac97 to intel hd audio.

Thanks.

That magically did the trick. HD audio should probably be the default when creating a new VM in 5.1.

I have the same problem.

Same Problem on Linux Host. Same Solution.

[Technologov]

it's not a solution. Windows 2000 and XP don't recognize HD audio controller.
