I have the problem that I cannot startup any virtual machine in my VBox installation. I run Win 10.0.10586 and the latest VirtualBox 5.0.22 r108108. The error in the UI can be seen in the attached screenshot. It seems to break during or even prior to loading the ISO images on initial startup/installation. I used various Xubuntu/Lubuntu install ISOs and minimal ISOs.
The logs indicate something related to
1) VBOX_E_IPRT_ERROR.

- Broken ISO download (I tried different ones and checked the checksums - 100% correct)
- Re-installing Virtual Box (No effect)
- Re-starting the machine (no effect)
- Reducing guest memory (1-4 GB of 8 GB total , no effect)
- Tested influence of anti-vir guard (only running windows defender, no change after temporary disabling)
- Deinstalled anything remotely related to virtualization (teamviewer, daemon tools, etc)
- Deinstalled Windows updates that came after 12/15: 3149135, 3140768, 3135173, 3124263, 3116900 , 3140743 , 3124262, 3124200 , 3116908 , 3120677 (lead to Windows 10.0 1511 10586.0 )
- Disabling and enabling VT-X support in BIOS (no effect)
- Trying out different VBox version (tried 4.3 to current to development/test builds -> always the same)
- Fiddeling around with virtualization settings in VB (no effect, back to default settings)
- Checked for error from HardeningLog supR3HardenedMonitor_LdrLoadDll: error opening 'C:\WINDOWS\system32\wintab32.dll - seems to be an error that won't stop VB from operating - nothing changed
Twice during my tests I even received a windows bluescreen together with an auto-reboot of my machine (see blueshot.jpg attachment).
My VBox system settings:
- Base Memory: 768 MB
- Chipset: PIIX3
- Extended Features: [X] I/O APIC [ ] Enable EFI [X] HW Clock
- Processor: 1 CPU, 100 % Execution Cap
- Extended Features: [ ] Enable PAE/NX
- Acceleration: Paravirt. Interface: Default, [X] VT-X / AMD-V [X] Nested Paging
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance & best regards.
PS: I had to zip the logs due to filesize limitations.
