[Solved] Critical Error on Windows 10

Post by Hussain Islam »

I am running into a critical error (as per the virtualbox). I am attaching the logs and my system information. I would really appreciate help as this is the first time I am trying to use virtual machine, so my knowledge is pretty low on that.

It's a matter of enabling VT-x in the BIOS. See your PC's manufacturer help on how to do this. Also, make sure that nothing else has an exclusive hold on the VT-x. You may also need to uninstall or add an exception for VirtualBox in the McAfee anti-virus / firewall software.

Please don't ask me to do your homework for you, I have more than enough of my own things to do.

Thank you so much! The issue was with VT-x, once changed from the BIOS, it is running like butter :)
