Hi
I'm trying to install Electronics Workbench 5.12 on my windows xp guest system in my laptop running ubuntu 9.04.
The setup file is on a cd which mounts like it should. I can run setup and enter name and serial number, but when the program starts installing i get the blue screen of death.
This program worked excellent on a standalone installation of win xp on a separate partition on the same laptop.
It's quite an old program, so I also tried running the setup program in win 2000 and win 98 compatability mode, with no different result.
I have no idea on how to start troubleshooting this problem. Can anyone give me a few hints?

Make an ISO from the CD and install from the ISO.

Here is the screen dump. It's in swedish, but I think the relevant information is obvious. Tell me if I should translate otherwise.

Yeah, but I'm not quite sure what to do with it:vbox4me2 wrote:Seen these: ?

I changed the ide controller to PIIX3 and made a new guest install, but no difference...* A condition that the kernel is not allowed to have or intercept (also known as a bound trap), e.g. the CPU generated an error that the kernel did not catch.

Re: Blue screen when installing Electronics Workbench
Did you disable all the other exotic features such as usb, 3d, shared folders?

Yeah, in the latest installation I don't have the guest additions installed at all.vbox4me2 wrote:Did you disable all the other exotic features such as usb, 3d, shared folders?
Re: Blue screen when installing Electronics Workbench
Vbox version? if 3.0.x make sure vt-x, smp and such stuff is off, io apic might help, does the Guest see one core or more? You could also try 2.2.4

Re: Blue screen when installing Electronics Workbench
Version is 2.1.4 and the guest sees one core. If there is nothing else to test, I guess it's time to try a newer version...
