[SOLVED] Virtual Machine Inaccessible after system freeze
Posted: 14. Mar 2009, 17:44
I left my laptop running last night after rushing to an emergency situation. I come back 20 mins ago to see my entire system crash. Was running linux mint 5 and virtualbox 2.1.2/windows xp guest with Firefox up and running, everything was completely frozen, the date and time was stuck on around the time I left. So, I used ctrl+alt+backspace and that didn't work, then I tried the REISUB method, and that didn't work, so I shut my laptop down manually. Rebooted, started up virtualbox and I get an error message like this:
I tried hitting the Refresh button but nothing happens. Any help with this will be greatly appreciated. ThanksCould not load the settings file
