URGENT: VM won't start: Memory reference & 0xc0000005 error

Post by sahil_puri »

Hi,
I installed VirtualBox 4.3.16 and i'm trying to start the VM after creating a virtual machine.
I am not able to start it, with the following errors:

"The instruction at 0x00030000 referenced memory at 0x00030000. The memory could not be written. Click OK to terminate the program."

After clicking OK, I get this error:

"Failed to open a session for the virtual machine HeliosTestBench.

The virtual machine 'HeliosTestBench' has terminated unexpectedly during startup with exit code -1073741819 (0xc0000005). More details may be available in 'C:\Users\212393529\VirtualBox VMs\HeliosTestBench\Logs\VBoxStartup.log'.

Result Code: E_FAIL (0x80004005)
Component: Machine
Interface: IMachine {480cf695-2d8d-4256-9c7c-cce4184fa048}"


The log files and screenshot of the same are attached.
PLEASE help me out. This is extremely URGENT!!

And where is the said log?

PS. Unless your life depends on it, it is not URGENT

The log is present, above the screenshots.

@Sahil: See the 4.3.17 test build linked in the first message of the "4.3.16 security issues" topic at the top of this forum.

@sahil_puri, @cheung: Which antivirus / anti-malware / firewall / protection software do you have installed? Also, it would be nice if you could see if this test build helps: https://www.virtualbox.org/download/tes ... 01-Win.exe

Kind Regards,
