ACPI Shutdown stops working after some time
Posted: 5. Mar 2011, 11:12
Hi!
I'm running VirtualBox 3.2.12 and I'm having the strangest of issues on a freshly installed Windows 7 (SP1) guest here: when the guest has just started, I can let VirtualBox issue the ACPI shutdown signal and it will shut down immediately. But if I let the guest idle for a few hours, it completely ignores the ACPI signal -- I have to remote desktop into the guest and shut it down by clicking on Start -> Shutdown.
I have disabled Sleep and Hibernation, Windows Search Indexing and Scheduled Defragmentation on the guest and it's not doing anything at all when this happens.
Any ideas?
