Error Creating Win 8.1 Installs

[DonS]

I am trying to install Windows 8.1 Pro on a new drive on a PC running Win 7 Pro with 8 gb ram and a Core I7 processor. I am getting error code 0x000000C4. I have attached the log and image files.

What is wrong?

Thanks.

Set the guest OS version to Win8.1 (64 bit), not Win8.

Then, your next problem will be this :-

00:00:12.169079 Host RAM: 8148MB total, 1986MB available
...
00:00:12.797053 RamSize <integer> = 0x0000000100000000 (4 294 967 296, 4 GB)

You can't give a VM 4GB RAM if you only have 1986MB available - and the host will need some of that too. Something on the host is hogging a humungous amount of RAM - I'd find out what that is and ditch it.

Thanks. I missed that.
