Hi

I'm tying to install Ubuntu 14.04 on VirtualBox under windows 7. But it crashes with the erro-message:

"The instruction at 0x02f512a0 referenced memory at 0x02f512a0. The memory could not be written"

I have attched the log-file.

I have played around with changing both the Base Memory and Video Memory up and down, but it doesn't help.

Does any of you have a good suggestion to the problem?

Best,

Your host only has 4.3GB free, so it certainly can't afford to assign 4GB to guest. Try reducing that to 2GB.

Also there's this :-

VBox.log wrote: 00:00:01.742008 supR3HardenedErrorV: supR3HardenedScreenImage/NtCreateSection: cached rc=VERR_LDRVI_NOT_SIGNED fImage=1 fProtect=0x10 fAccess=0xf cHits=32 \Device\HarddiskVolume2\Windows\System32\tprb\5154\ImHttpComm.dll

An unsigned DLL (from something called IncrediMail?) is injecting itself into the VirtualBox host process. Recent VirtualBox version don't like that. IncrediMail (now called Perion) sound like a shifty bunch to me. You perhaps installed a toolbar from them?

Thanks for the coment.

I don't know anything about IncrediMail / Perion. I however tried to remove it from the computer.

Trying again to install Ubuntu allocating 2 GB to VM it still crashes before the installation begins.

The log file is attached.

Best,

Well, you seem to have gotten rid of the IncrediMail problem, however there is nothing the log about a crash.

I see that the log ends right after you begin to boot from the ISO. Have you done an MD5 checksum test of the ISO file?
