Windows 10 random reboots

Post by chronoscc »

I'm getting the same problem.
My host is a Dell XPS 9300. 16 GB. Intel i7.
Ubuntu 20.04 - Kernel 5.8.0-40-generic.
The VirtualBox was installed from VirtualBox's repository. Version 6.1.18.

When running Windows (desktop or server version), the Guest OS reboots unexpectedly.
I attached my VBox.log file.

The problem doesn't happens when my Guest OS is a Linux distributions (Ubuntu, Kali, ...).

Windows 10 VM crashing on VirtulalBox 6.1

Post by chronoscc »

There was some solution for this issue?
I'm having the same random crashes when my Guest OS is Windows 10 (server or desktop version).

When using a Linux Guest OS, everythings goes smooth.

I attached my VBox.log file.

My host is a Dell XPS 9300. 16 GB. Intel i7.
Ubuntu 20.04 - Kernel 5.8.0-40-generic.
The VirtualBox was installed from VirtualBox's repository. Version 6.1.18.

I tried change a couple of settings, but nothing appears to works.

Log file doesn't tell further informations about the cause of the problem.

Any ideia?

I merged your posts.

Your VM had a BSOD and rebooted. The Virtualbox environment kept going.

There may be a bug or two in the 2019 64-bit guest type template. If this VM is brand new, start a new VM with 2016 64-bit (note 6 not 9). 2019 should still run in the 2016 template. Also check that the VM's System Setting, Paravirtualization tab says 'Hyper-V'. See what that does.

Hi scottgus1.

Thanks for your reply.
I changed the settings like you suggested.
But the problem happened again.

I attached a new VBox.log file.

I created a new VM to start from beginning. Problem persists.

I don't know what I can change.

Below is the the ISO file of Windows Server 2019 that I'm using:
2019-17763.737.190906-2324.rs5_release_svc_refresh_SERVER_EVAL_x64FRE_en-us_1.iso

I gave up to wait virtualbox's support.
Moving to VMware Workstation Pro.
Bye guys. Good luck.

We forgot about your topic. Regrettably I can't figure out what is wrong. There's four of these:
GIM: HyperV: Reset initiated through MSR
and a BSOD.

FWIW we often have to wait until someone who recognizes the problem can offer a suggestion. A weekly bump is a good idea.

And finally:

You're using free Virtualbox. Free VirtualBox users are entitled to zero (0) support. Only paying Oracle customers get support, and they don't come here for it.
