Hi, I have a quite fresh install of a Windows Xp install which is as a guest os in a Windows 8.1 virtualbox host. A few times the computer has just hanged and it doesn't respond anymore. After that when I try to start the virtual machine it gives me a "Guru meditation warning" and says that a critical error has occured. There are two usb-serial converters attached to the system if that makes any difference. The system has also crashed like this with one completely different usb-rs232 converter.
The log file is here: pastebin . com/diDJ9Lwu
Can anyone help me? Is the laptop (HP 255 G3) a problem? XP runs just fine when it runs normally.
