shutting down guest OS causes VirtualBox to crash

[justinrpg]

every time I shut down my guest OS on virtualBox it causes VirtualBox to crash "VirtaulBox Has Stopped Working"... updating to the lastest version didn't help either... same problem persists

00:00:10.871 Guest Additions information report: Version 4.0.4 r70112 '4.0.4'

You should update the guest additions to match the version you are running (4.1.4)

00:00:19.654 PIIX3 ATA: LUN#2: CD-ROM read error, 1 sectors at LBA 0

This keeps popping up in the log as well. Do you have a CD/DVD in the drive? Do you need this in the drive? If so I would find out why it produces errors.

[justinrpg]

no, there is no disc in the drive.... how do I fix the sound??? and what are expansion packs?

[Perryg]

You didn't click the link I sent you now did you?

[justinrpg]

I did, now how is that going to fix the crashing problem?

[Perryg]

You need to look through the log file you sent. It shows everything that I have highlighted here for you. Something you are doing is requesting the USB and without the extpack you will have issue.

To test what happens disable the USB2 and the sound in the guest settings and see what happens.

As long as you have issues indicated in the log file you run the risk of having problems with the guest.

[justinrpg]

I did everything you said, I still get frequent crashing upon shutting down guest

What does the eventlogs on the Host say?

[justinrpg]

I have to upload the log apparently.... it is really long and your forum won't let me post it

[vbox4me2]

I meant the Host eventlogs which is a windows thing.

VirtualBox 4.1.6 r74713 win.x86 (Nov  4 2011 13:40:24) release log
00:00:13.192 Guest Additions information report: Version 4.0.4 r70112 '4.0.4'

I thought you said you had done everything I suggested. Looks to me like you have not updated the guest additions yet.
There is a fix for XP in version 4.1.4 Guest Additions that should take care of this problem too.

[justinrpg]

wtf... I guess it reverted back....
