VB 4.1 Crashes when restoring snapshot

Post by jslegers »

Hello,

I'm using VB 4.1. I found out that when I create a snapshot and try to restore a snapshot the VB gui crashes. When i select the check box create a new snapshot when restoring one it works. This error both occurs on a Windows 7 32 and 64 Bit edition. Is this a known issue.

see the similar behavior on Windows 7 64bit host ... except it crashes for me regardless of whether or not "create new snap" is selected

Same for me, Win7 64Bit Host, VBox 4.1 crashes upon snapshot-restoration. But after checking the partitions using
chkdsk c: /f /r
72kb bad sectors had been found. After using chkdsk this error doesnt occur anymore. Try this yourself on all host-partitions. I've never had this issue before. But this time bad sectors made VBox crash and Windows, in the end. Thus, i don't think VBox is to blame.
