Hello everyone,
I have been getting this message:
NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x800004005)
and as well in a separate alert box:
Kernel driver not installed (rc=-1908)
This started happening about 2 or 3 months ago with all the VM's on this machine (Debian and various versions of Windows). All has been working fine before that for probably probably a couple of years (as far as I can remember)....
Now, If I re-install Virtualbox, everything gets fixed and works....however, if I reboot the host, the errors all comes back and yet I can fix the problem by reinstalling Virtualbox once more.
Currently on 4.1.8 r75467
TL;DR - I need to reinstall Virtualbox everytime I restart my Mac otherwise I get errors and can't boot my VMs.
Any ideas?
