Musicmatch

[Fossil]

I have used Virtualbox running windows xp for over a year, since Musicmatch no longer plays in newer versions of windows. with the older versions of VB I could set the priority in task manager / details to Above normal and this allowed my music to play without stuttering, with the latest version this doesn't work. I like music playing in the background all the time. I use a 1TB portable hard drive to run VB from, all I have loaded on the VB drive is Musicmatch and my music collection of approximately 100,450 MP3s. Any suggestions on how to get the music to play clean.

I suppose the obvious solution seeing you don't mind using an older piece of software would be to rollback to the version of VirtualBox that was working for you.

Thanks for the tip and I installed the version that worked. Now when I open it I get this error message.
Failed to open a session for the virtual machine music.

pci#0: Device in slot 0x30 has been removed! vendor=0x106b device=0x003f [ver=3 pass=final] (VERR_SSM_LOAD_CONFIG_MISMATCH).

Result Code: E_FAIL (0x80004005)
Component: Console
Interface: IConsole {db7ab4ca-2a3f-4183-9243-c1208da92392}

I have uninstalled the program several times and reinstalled and get the same message
thanks for the help

if there is a "Saved state" for the guest, try deleting it. With the guest shut down, right click on it's name in the VB GUI, "Delete saved state". As far as I understand, your shouldn't update VirtualBox while guests are in a Saved State.
