Migrating xp vdi to a new laptop causes blue screen

Post by sidestrand »

I set up a virtual machine on my old 32 bit centrino laptop which worked well. I've bought a new laptop - Centrino dual core and hit a blue screen when I try to boot the XP image.

The message on the blue screen is:

STOP: 0x0000007B (0xFAF7B640, 0xC0000034, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)

Can I transfer an image from one machine to another? I'm running the XP guest on an Ubuntu 8.04 host. The laptop is a Samsung Q45

Thanks for your help.
