Hi, all.
When I install the Kali Linux in Virtualbox in Windows, there is a Guru error message pop up.
Previous this machine has installed the Kali, Ubuntu quite straight, I don't know why would this happen.
My machine is Windows 7 Ultimate SP1,
The Version for VirtualBox is 5.2.0 r118431 (Qt5.6.2)
Please find the VBox.log and VBox.png file in the attachments.
During this installation, I just open the chrome and Evernote, same as previous.
I would be much appreciated if you could provide the solution for this.
Also, may I ask for a guide for reference for how to search the key information if this happens again?

Re: Question about the Guru Meditation error
You seem to be a victim of #17436. Please update to the latest VirtualBox version that addresses this issue. See the Downloads page, and please note the "Important" section. If that doesn't work you should try the latest test builds, especially with all the Spectre/Meltdown patches coming in from all sides.
How to search for? I searched for "Guru" in your log (I underlined the terms I used to search in the log):
How to search for? I searched for "Guru" in your log (I underlined the terms I used to search in the log):
The "keyword" in there is "VERR_PGM_INVALID_CR3_ADDR". Search the web for that term. Within the first couple of results you get ticket #17436. Read the ticket, see if the symptoms match:00:00:16.729707 !! VCPU0: Guru Meditation -1668 (VERR_PGM_INVALID_CR3_ADDR)
