Visual Studio 2015 install fails on Windows 10 build 10130

Post by te777 »

I had to disable 3D acceleration for my Windows 10 build 10130 guest to allow the installation of Visual Studio 2015 Community RC. With 3D acceleration enabled the application would not install from an ISO or from the web. My host is Windows 7 SP1 64 bit with an AMD video card.

Edit: after a successful install of Visual Studio 2015 Community RC with 3D acceleration disabled, I found you have to keep 3D acceleration disabled to run the application.

Thanks for your information. I disabled the 3d acceleration option of windows 10 (Production Version) VM and the installer programs for visual studio 2013 / visual studio 2015 didn't crashed again. Hope this issue can be solved in future version of virtualbox.
