Hi, i have problem with virtual box, i create XP machine and saved save state on machine, i copy machine folder to another pc and cannot be run every restore statate in another pc is error. Please Help me.

Shut down the guest properly and then copy it to the new host. It still may have issues after copying over, but that's something we can deal with if and when it becomes an issue. Be sure to copy the whole VM folder.

Moving to using VirtualBox.

not i must have saved session for one program! , any sollution?

Unless the two machines are exactly the same in every respect and the versions of VirtualBox are exactly the same it will never work to transport them in saved state. When you start the guest ( which is really hibernated ) it will see a change and refuse to start.

Let me ask you a question:
How would you move a boot drive between two different PCs? Can't do it live.

Or I think a closer analogy might be to hibernate a laptop, then take the drive out and install it as the primary drive in a desktop PC. I can pretty much guarantee that the desktop will not come out of hibernation.

Moral: if you want your VMs to be as portable as possible (including to and from a backup medium), then make to shut them down.
