Windows XP and Vista both give same error message

Post by desk2web »

I managed to get Windows XP and Windows Vista working as guests on my Linux box, but now when I try to run either guest I get the following error:

Code: Select all

Unknown error creating VM (VERR_HOSTIF_INIT_FAILED).
VBox status code: -3100 (VERR_HOSTIF_INIT_FAILED).


Result Code: 
0x80004005
Component: 
Console
Interface: 
IConsole {1dea5c4b-0753-4193-b909-22330f64ec45}
Can anyone shed any light on this?

Thanks
