IRQ_NOT_LESS_or_EQL

[Arlester]

I have a Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit host. I have two XP HyperV VHDs - one is a C drive (system drive) and the other is a D drive (data drive) - that came out of a HyperV VM and work flawlessly in HyperV 2008 R2 Core. I have as far as I can tell disabled every 'special feature' in the Virtual Box VM's I am trying to start these up in but keep getting the following:
XP Logo comes up.
Blue screen starting with "A problem has been detected ..."IRQ_NOT_LESS_or_EQL" I will attach the screen shot and also the log.

If anybody can help it would be appreciated.

VirtualBox doesn't claim to be able to run Hyper-v VMs. There is a lot more to a VM platform than just the container file format.

The error indicates a driver problem in the guest - you have a buggy driver or a driver not suited to the hardware selected in the VM recipe. You could possibly try booting up in safe mode and uninstalling everything relating to a Hyper-v host. Or, you could try booting from a setup CD and repair the installation.

Thanks for the response. I thought I had read that Virtual Box supported VHD's. If not I'll find another solution.

VirtualBox does indeed support VHDs (i.e. it has no problems at all reading the drive), but whether the drive contents will be happy in their new home is a different kettle of fish.
