I am currently running VirtualBox on Ubuntu 16.04

Linux 4.4.0-93-generic #116-Ubuntu SMP Fri Aug 11 21:17:51 UTC 2017 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

~# vboxmanage --version

Running Windows 2003 standard 32 bit VB. It's been fine now for 2 years except for the last month or so.

I am only needing to utilize the audio for Microsoft SAPI; nothing else these days.

It is crashing after running about 2-3 days. I have attached error image when crashing. It has never done this before.

I have removed and reinstalled Virtual box some 4-5 times now over the last month.

The error I see is: Virtual box crashed with SIGSEGV in TMR3TimerQueuesDo()

The provided log does not show a VM running for 2 days. It shows a VM running for 4 minutes and then being shut down (no crash).

Try disabling the audio in the guest. See if that helps...

Thank you Socratis.

Will give it a try.

Issue here is that the Windows server only purpose is for audio / Microsoft SAPI.

I also have a Windows 7 VB that I can use.

Odd that it has become an issue after a couple of years.

Try then with 5.1.28, just released. It fixes a lot of audio issues.
