VERR_MAP_FAILED

I need help with running Windows OS on my mac. This sort of things is not my cup of tea. I only need this so I can code using a program my professor would like me to use.

I had Windows OS running perfectly fine, but I never attempted to run anything on it. I needed to turn on 3D acceleration in the setting so I accidentally powered down the computer instead of turning the machine off by start > shutdown. I then preceded to enable 3D acceleration in the settings, I attempted to reboot the VM, but it crashed and gave me this message:

Failed to open a session for the virtual machine Windows OS.

Failed to map a memory object. (VERR_MAP_FAILED).

Result Code: NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005)
Component: Console
Interface: IConsole {1968b7d3-e3bf-4ceb-99e0-cb7c913317bb}


I restarted virtualbox and my computer, attempted to disable the 3D acceleration, and played around with memory alloc. I did not note anything wrong in the settings except that maybe the 19/20 GB is being used in the dynamic virtual drive, I added another 30 GB drive but that didnt pop up any error after I created it (which was prior to this error).

I really need this to work as I have an assignment due this upcoming friday.

Post the guests log file, as a zipped attachment please. ("VBox.log", from the "Logs" subfolder of the VM folder).

You could also have tried Google, e.g. "VERR_MAP_FAILED site:forums.virtualbox.org". E.g. this was one of the first hits after your thread.

Random log snippets are useless. Please attach the complete log file.

Never mind guys, I figured what i did wrong :) I simply increased RAM way too much. Unfortunately, I had to create a new VM.
