Win 10 doesn't boot (it freezes) on my VM on MAC Ventura

Post by TrippleJ »

Hey All,
I just installed VirtualBox 4 days ago and tried to boot Win 10 on it (using Mac Ventura), but every time I try to, it freezes with only the windows sign showing.
Then a message pops up that I should go to this forum and shear my .pdf and .log with you, so here we go :) I hope someone can help me...
PS I can not upload the log, cuz its to big (356KB), If someone could tell me, what I should upload, it would be super helpful

Your duplicate post in Windows Guests was deleted: dupes are a forum no-no.

Zipped logs fit. They should be saved as text files, not printed to PDF. Then zip and post with Upload Attachment.

BTW, if your Mac is an M1 or M2 Mac, and you are using the Virtualbox 7.0 ARM Beta, then don't bother with the log. Virtualbox on ARM won't run modern or 64-bit OS's. One forum guru has got 32-bit XP going, and there's an M1/M2 sticky in Mac Hosts with the expected results of using the ARM M1/M2 release, which won't be much for some time.
