My VM has crushed - Guru Meditation error

Post by DA-78 »

Please assist if possible. My VM has crashed and display the guru meditation error. I am clueless in trying to find what might the reason for this. I guess over the weekend my PC was abruptly shut down due to power failure.

Old story: Win7 host, third party AV (Avast or AVG) recently updated. In that case go into the AV settings and disable hardware-assisted virtualization.
