Mac host, Win7 Guest keeps aborting after Mac sleeps

[Mark_W]

Hi,

I'm currently running 4.2.6 r82870 on a Mac host. There is a single Windows 7 guest which I have been happily running for years. Since changing to this release of VBOX I have found that when the Mac hosts sleeps while the Win7 guest is running, on resuming the Mac host the Win7 guest immediately aborts after looking like it is paused, for a fraction of a second (greyed out).

I have read various articles about disabling all power management in the Win7 guest, which I have done - however the problem still occurs.

Does anyone have any pointers on how I might fix this? It worked fine up until this VBOX release - when the host slept, the guest would automatically pause, then resume ok when the host woke up.

Thanks in advance!
