Hello all,

I have installed VirtualBox and I able to click on new and set up a virtual machine but when I click on start my computer crashes. So to be clear I have not installed the virtual OS and it is not crashing in the virtual environment.

I get the following blue crash screen info:

A problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer.

A clock interrupt was not received on a secondary processor within the allocated time interval.

If this is the first time you've seen this stop screen, restart your computer. If this screen appears again, follow these steps.....


When I restart after this I do not see the message again as directly after or just prior to the prompt for my password I get a black screen and nothing else. I have used system restore to go back to a point before VirtualBox was installed and tried again with the same result.


Have I gotten the wrong version?
Has anyone seen this and subsequently solved the issue? How?

Since you provide no version information it is impossible to answer that question.

In fact you haven't provided much information at all. Please read Minimum information needed for assistance. A VM log file would be particularly useful.
