I have been having this issue for around the past year, even as I have stayed up to date with the latest Virtualbox releases.
After guest additions are installed, my windows VMs do not boot properly. The Windows splash screen freezes during boot up and there is nothing I can do except power off the machine.
I am using Arch Linux on an IvyBridge CPU with Intel HD graphics 4000 (i915), and have reproduced the issue under the following conditions:
- both windows 8.1 and windows 10
- both intel's xf86-video-intel driver as well as the modesetting driver
- both the stock Arch linux binary package and Oracle's official package (virtualbox-bin from the AUR)
- the linux-ck-ivybridge kernel (4.11.5-2-ck-ivybridge, which I normally use) as well as the stock Arch Linux kernel (4.11.5-1-ARCH)
I think this issue is related to the one called 'Get frozen screen when boot after extension pack installation' (t=83169) (sorry can't link directly as this is my first post).
However I don't observe the problem on a fresh Windows install without Guest Additions installed, which is not mentioned in that post.
I have attached zips of a clean boot/shutdown cycle when the problem happens, for both OSE and non-OSE builds of Virtualbox, as well as the .vbox file for my Windows 10 VM.
Let me know if there's any other information I should provide, or if I should file a bug report.
Regards,
Max
Edit: There are some similar sounding issues floating around, but I think this snippet of the log stands out as different from anything else I can find, except for that one forum post I referred to above.
