Re: Known incompatibilities with 3rd party drivers
Hyper-V locks for exclusive use the Virtualization feature of the computer at boot time thus prevent any other software to use it in any way.
On the other hand, Virtualbox has an option to enable or disable this exclusive lock on a per vm basis, and does not lock the feature until at least one VM configured for it starts.
The problem is with Hyper-V, not Virtualbox.
Until Microsoft decides otherwise, this will remain a incompatibility.

@noteirak
Thank you for your reply. It helped a lot unfortunately
I wanted to use VirtualBox to host Oracle VM Server / Oracle VM Manager along with OVM templates.
As i see i will have to try to use Hyper-V for that purpose

Re: Known incompatibilities with 3rd party drivers
Can anyone shed any light on what the incompatibility is with the Cisco AnyConnect VPN client? and are there any workarounds?
Re: Known incompatibilities with 3rd party drivers
There seems to be a driver incompatibility between "Virtual Box bridged network support" and Emsisoft Internet Security Pack, especially the OnlineAmor firewall component included in EAM:

Issue is well known, is there a workaround or fix?

@vb-boxer,
No one here can help you with this.
You already posted to the tickets in bugtracker. The DEVs are the only ones that can do anything about this.

It seems that developers don't take care of this issue, bugtracker has been 22 month without any change.

Re: Known incompatibilities with 3rd party drivers
hello guys,
I had same problem, but this time with avast antivirus.
well first time I knew it when I choose to re-install my laptop.
Before I re-install my laptop, I had installed 64 bit windows and virtualbox. I can run it and I can install 64 bit guest os.
spec of my laptop pentium i5 with 16GB RAM. so by default and I'm sure it support virtualization.
But when I finished install my laptop. the weird thing happen. It didn't support 64 bit guest os anymore.
so I tried to remember what went wrong. as far as I know, the different was I change the virus scanner from avira to avast.
so I uninstalled avast, and install virtualbox again. whoola the 64 bit guest appear.
so please check it maybe i was wrong.
thanks

The registry keys for Oracle VirtualBox are located there:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\VBoxDrv
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\VBoxNetAdp
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\VBoxNetFlt
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\VBoxUSBMon
Corresponding files in the file system:
VBoxDrv VirtualBox Support Drive: c:\windows\system32\drivers\vboxdrv.sys
VBoxNetAdpVirtualBox Host-Only Network Adapter Driver" c:\windows\system32\drivers\vboxnetadp.sys
VBoxNetFltVirtualBox Bridged Networking Driver: c:\windows\system32\drivers\vboxnetflt.sys
VBoxUSBMonVirtualBox USB Monitor Driver: c:\windows\system32\drivers\vboxusbmon.sys
Suggested tool to finds these keys. disable, delete or access them in the file system or the registry:
MS TechNet Sysinternals Autoruns
Okay, this was really really a hard one. I've tried a felt 100 things.
My solution (Windows was
Uninstall VirtualBox and reboot
Download RunAsSystem and start "C:\Windows\regedit.exe" with it (You can check with TaskManager that it really runs as "System")
Remove "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Enum\Root\SUN_VBOXNETFLTMP"
Remove the keys recommended by @climenole
Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Enum\ROOT\NET and delete all "VirtualBo Host-Only ..." adapters.
Reboot
Use something like CCleaner to clean the registry
Reinstall VirtualBox

Re: Known incompatibilities with 3rd party drivers
Sometimes, when I plug in my USBs, then I put it into the VirtualBox, it errors and won't let me put it into the system. It does this on all of my OSes.

Re: Known incompatibilities with 3rd party drivers
@gabe: This topic is about incompatibility between VirtualBox and any drivers on the HOST. Note what forum we are in. This is not the place to post about drivers you installed in a guest.

Re: Known incompatibilities with 3rd party drivers on Host
I'm a little confused by this thread. I have been running VB on my work computer(s) at least since version 4.1.2, and possibly earlier.
In that time, my host computer(s) have run Windows XP, Windows 7, and currently Windows 8.1. The VMs have been Windows XP, Windows 7, Linux Mint 16, Lubuntu, Ubuntu, CentOS, Tails, and others.
For work, I have had Checkpoint VPN and Cisco Systems VPN client installed on all three host machines, and in numerous Windows VMs. I have never had an issue between either of the VPN software and VB. In fact, the VPN software is the primary reason I started using VB. I had to have both running at the same time, but they occasionally caused problems with each other on my Windows XP host. I started using VB to segregate them in different VMs.
I realize they have been reported (in the past) as being incompatible with VB by some users, but my experience tells me that it cannot be true all the time. Also, it is possible that the reported "Cisco AnyConnect VPN client" is different from the Cisco Systems VPN Client (version 5.0.07.0440) that I use. I cannot make a comparison on the Checkpoint VPN client, but the version I use has varied from E75.30 Build 835017083 to E80.42 Build 986000092.
For what its worth...

Re: Known incompatibilities with 3rd party drivers on Host
If you use VB to seperate them,
then you are running the VPN clients in the guests?
This shouldn't be an issue.
As I understand, the problem is having them on the host.
Because both VPN and the VB bridge need to hook in the host's network stack.

Re: Known incompatibilities with 3rd party drivers on Host
My THREE sistems that have VBox (4.3.12 working on x64 Win7 SP1) have nForce networking.
As today (july 3-2015) is there any change in the status of nforce incompatibilities or any known stable workarround????

Re: Known incompatibilities with 3rd party drivers on Host
Workaround? sure.
Reinstall VirtualBox without Networking. (You will still have NAT network)
Other than that, I'm not aware of any good solution.
