[Solved] Can't seem to run 3 VMs at a time??? Guru error

Post by Maduin »

Hello, I am currently in a class to learn Windows Server 2012. To do so I am using VBox from home, and emulating three machines. One is DC01 (domain controller), one is Router01 (the router), and one is IT007 (standard user account, running Windows 7). Various parts of the class require me to set up network connections and such throughout the three systems, and have them all online at the same time at various points. However I have noticed that if I try and have all 3 machines up at the same time, I get a "guru" error as the last machine is booting up (and it won't finish booting, I get the guru error). So I have included the log for Router01 and DC01, that the guru error mentions. Thanks ahead of time. I can check in later this evening, as I work nights and sleep during first part of the day.

memory over commitment

You either need to reduce the memory allocated or add more to the host.
