any ideas?

One idea I have, Google's sources could be wrong.
But that might not be the kind of idea you might have had in mind...

The log, a good citation, shows:

00:00:06.610556 VirtualBox VM 6.1.15 r140899 win.amd64 (Oct 13 2020 14:28:30) release log
00:00:06.895555 Oracle VM VirtualBox Extension Pack (Version: 6.1.15 r140899; VRDE Module: VBoxVRDP)
00:01:33.361872 VMMDev: Guest Additions information report: Version 6.1.15 r140877 '6.1.15'

All good.

This error seems to still finger the Nvidia driver problem while 3D is enabled. However, the error is different than it has been.

Theoretically the Nvidia problem was supposed to be fixed in 6.1.15, maybe the Nvidia drivers need to be updated too?

ok so i need to update my nvidia drivers?
if so i recvently re updated them from a factory reset buy ill check again

[Soccy]

ok i just checked i am on best drivers i can for my gpu


is there naything else i can actually do

[scottgus1]

Try the newest Virtualbox release 6.1.16, along with Extension Pack and Guest Additions. There were additional hardening code fixes inserted.

Try the guest again with 3D enabled, and post a log file.

If this does not fix the Nvidia driver problem, you'll have to run without 3D enabled, while the devs continue plugging away at it.

[Soccy]

Ok thank you and here is the log :



also nothing goes bad with display until i move it to the other monitor is this down to the drivers?

[scottgus1]

Are you sure you put up the correct log? That one still shows 6.1.15.

[Soccy]

oh sorry wrong zip

[scottgus1]

Guest Additions is still 6.1.15, but the Nvidia driver error is still there. The driver error shows before the GAs load, so I doubt 6.1.16 GAs would fix the problem. It would still be safest to update them and try one more time.

But it is a different error than the normal error we've seen for a month or so. The devs have been told, so for now run without 3D acceleration, and we'll await further test builds.

[Soccy]

ok thank you for informing devs thats strange thats its never been seen before i will keep having a look at erors seeing if can find anything when the next test builds come out would it pop up when i load virtual box or should i just keep and eye on this site?



i will update the gas now and give it another go




thanks socy

[scottgus1]

keeping an eye on the forum is probably the best way. I don't think test builds get highlighted in the Update box, only regular releases.

[scottgus1]

Soccy, could you please post what the version number of the Nvidia drivers you are running, so the devs can download and test them?

[Soccy]

hi yeah my drivers are GeForce 342.01 Driver
version 342.01 release date 12/14/2016

[scottgus1]

Not to be a pest, but could you please doublecheck? The date is 2016? Earlier you reported,

i am on best drivers i can for my gpu

Just want to get the devs pointed the right direction.

[Soccy]

yeah it is the best i can get my gpu is very old lol cant afford a new one :/
