[Solved] [Host Win7 - Guest WinXP] GURU_MEDITATION critical error

[thelpi]

Hello,

Out of nowhere since yesterday, I can't launch my virtual machine (a win XP guest on a Win 7 host)

I use this setup since 10 years without any trouble, I have no idea why it appears now

I have a "meditation guru critical error", I joined the log file as an attachment

I've tried to create a brand new VM with a new VHD, but I have the same error quickly during Win XP installation (so my best guess is a change on the host)

My VirtualBox software version is 6.1

Thanks for the help

Your Avast antivirus got updated. Look for the new hardware virtualization option it has, and disable it.

That was indeed the problem!

Thank you so much
