Hello.
I just upgraded my ViurtualBox 7.0.0 to v7.0.2 in my updated 64-bit W10 Pro (21H2) host PC. Upgrading my 64-bit W10 Pro (21H2) and 64-bit W7 HPE SP1 guest VMs' Guest Additions kept crashing their guest VMs. I never had this problem with with v7.0's upgrade from v6.1.40. I also didn't have this problem with my new updated 64-bit W11 22H2 Home guest VM.
I attached both 64-bit W7 HPE SP1 and W10 Pro guest VMs' zipped crash logs. I already rebooted my host PC to see if that helped. Nope. I will keep this old 7.0.0 guests additions for now.
Thank you for reading and hopefully answering soon.

Re: Upgrading VB 7.0.2's Guest Additions crashes my 64-bit W7 HPE SP1 & W10 Pro VMs.
Interesting. I tried uninstalling the old guest additions, rebooting, and then reinstalling the newer version in my old 64-bit W7 HPE SP1 VM. No crashes. HOWEVER, a reboot was required so it rebooted, booted up, and then my VM crashed while trying to load my guest VM's desktop. Attached its zip crash logs. I didn't bother with my 64-bit W10 guest VM since it will most likely happen too.

Interesting. After the crashes during the guest additions' (installation/upgrade)s, going back to Windows show them updated and working. I think the crashes happen when the video driver is trying to work at first since I saw my guest VM window do funky stuff like resize.

Most likely the problem is caused by the new WDDM driver.

Re: Upgrading VB 7.0.2's Guest Additions crashes my 64-bit W7 HPE SP1 & W10 Pro VMs.
Two things:
first I suggest to unistall any previous versions of the guest additions, reboot and than install the new one;
second, check if into the configuratione panels you have "enable 3D acceleration" and in case, disable it, just to be able to let the GA install correctly, later you can re-enable 3D acceleration.
Note: the first time I tried to run my win10 vm's I got a black screen, nothing more... than I tried to run the activity manager (right CTRL + CANC) and I could run a new EXPLORER and et voilà... everything at his place...
Hope this could halp you, enjoy your VB

Hi,
disabling 3D acceleration allowed me to install the guest additions. Thanks for the hint!
Nevertheless I still have many graphic glitches if I reenable it. Looks very similar to the issues I had upgrading to VB 6 if I remember correctly.

Re: Upgrading VB 7.0.2's Guest Additions crashes my 64-bit W7 HPE SP1 & W10 Pro VMs.
FYI. V7.0.4 still has this problem when I upgraded from v7.0.2.
Re: Upgrading VB 7.0.2's Guest Additions crashes my 64-bit W7 HPE SP1 & W10 Pro VMs.
I'm seeing the same problem here.
On the 7.02 Extensions upgrade I did see some messages during the install, but it did install, and I was able to set the display resolution over 1600x1200 to 2560x1440 as has been working with the guests (Windows and Linux) all along.
I upgraded to VB 7.04 and this version of extensions installed also with the messages scrolling along but I was never able to get the screen resolution to go over 1600x1200.
I eventually had to uninstall the 7.04 extensions from the W10 guest and downgrade VB to 7.02 to get the display working again.
I'd like to be at 7.04 but with or without the 3d acceleration enabled, but the extensions don't seem to install correctly and allow for the higher display resolutions.
Any ideas on how to proceed or help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Try W10 guest's safe mode yet?rsk wrote:...I eventually had to uninstall the 7.04 extensions from the W10 guest and downgrade VB to 7.02 to get the display working again.

I haven't tried safe mode yet.
It does boot to a desktop on 7.04 with the 7.04 extensions installed.
There has to be something going on with the driver. I haven't been able to locate the log file yet to see what might be in there.
