Windows 10 guest boot loop

Hello,

I have installed a new Windows 10 guest. I had issues with the display (it does not like 3d accel) but I got that sorted out. The VM sometimes crashes and reboots automatically and gets stuck in a boot loop until I get the Windows recovery console where I shut it down.
Any ideas what might be wrong?

This is on a Dell Latitude 5420 laptop.
Log attached.

Thank you.

My apologies, I posted in the wrong section. This should be moved to Windows Guests.

So far this actually appears to be a host issue, so good choice on the subforum! :D

Hyper-V is enabled and the massive time offset is present. So it's likely that you're up against the recent Windows 10/11/Hyper-V attempt bug.

The VM could use a second processor, which might clear up the problem. (Even if it doesn't, Windows 10 adores two processors.)

You could try turning off Hyper-V, see HMR3Init: Attempting fall back to NEM (Hyper-V is active).

Or try the 6.1.35 test build. If you go this route, save the test build installer until you update again later.
