[Solved] A critical error occurred during execution of the virtual machine and has been stopped

Post by AndriiVar »

When trying to set the windows 10 to VirtualBox appears such a mistake

What could be the problem?

Your guest is triple faulting. This usually indicates that the guest is doing something nasty.

Where did this Windows10 ISO come from? Is it direct from Microsoft?

You might also want to consider installing a more up to date VirtualBox version, as Win10 is always changing.

I'm not sure why you posted that image. We already know from the log that you're using VirtualBox 5.1.30. The question was why you didn't upgrade to the current version, which is 5.2.2 at the time of writing. And remember to update the Guest Additions too.

Updated VirtualBox to 5.2.2

The problem remained the same "A critical error occurred during execution of the virtual machine and has been stopped"

I do see the following warning in the log.
VBox.log wrote: 00:00:01.724632 CPUM: WARNING! Can't turn on NX/XD when the host doesn't support it!
I have a feeling that this means that your CPU (2012 E5-2620) can't support Windows 10 in a VirtualBox VM, or indeed any version of Windows from 8.1 onwards.

A separate problem is that you are allocating 6 out of 6 cores to the VM, leaving nothing for the host (note that threads are not cores). This is usually not a good idea, but I don't think it's the cause of your immediate problem.

The E5-2620 has the necessary features but they have to be enabled in BIOS?

Actually yes, now that I look in detail this CPU does seem to have everything required, and the OP should certainly check that they are enabled in the host BIOS: Virtualization Technology (VT-x), and Data Execution Prevention is the usual form of words I think, both must be enabled.
