Guest Addition-drivers v4.3.8 crash my Win8.1

Post by ronnys »

Hi!
After my Virtualbox-Host has been upgraded to v4.3.8 on my OpenSUSE 13.1 64bits, my guest-OS(Win8.1 Pro) says that a new version of Virtualbox Guest Addition.
So i install this package, but then my Win8.1 crash and run System Repair.

After System Repair it rolls back to the old drivers and then it work again. So the drivers in 4.3.8 is not good.

Anyone experience the same?
