Eror: VERR_DRIVE_LOCKED

Post by Cib »

Every once in a wile I get this eror on start:
Failed to start the virtual machine Windows 98.
PIIX3 cannot attach drive to the Secondary Master (VERR_DRIVE_LOCKED).
Unknown error creating VM (VERR_DRIVE_LOCKED).

Details v

Result Code:
NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005)
Component:
Console
Interface:
IConsole {9511bc54-15ee-4ddf-808e-472aba03809c}
My only option is to hit "ok" and the start is aborted. Does this have anything to do with my problem here: http://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=17594 or is it a different problem?

Same thing. Please stick to one post it makes it hard to follow the chain of what you are doing.

I will lock this post so you do not get lost in the jungle and you can pick it up again on you other post.
