Please read Minimum information needed for assistance and provide zipped attachment of the VM log file and the guest settings.

Nothing giving a definitive answer. Could you also provide the VBoxSVC.log file found under $HOME/.config/VirtualBox? Try to start the VM first before giving the log.

The plot thickens...

Let's try some ideas which caused issues in the past. Could you try the following, one change at the time:
- Remove the guest additions from VM Virtual drive
- Reconfigure the 2nd virtual NIC in the VM config so it doesn't use NAT, and then disable it
- Reduce RAM usage

I don't have a better idea right now. I'll let the other mods help too, but if nothing comes up, I can only suggest to post on the BugTracker.

I would like to see the complete guests log file ( as an attachment ) compressed if it is too big other wise.

Hi,
I'm having the same issue on my openSUSE 13.2 with kernel 4.1.2-1-desktop from factory.
Additionally to the same VBox log messages I can see segfault in VBoxVMM.so im dmesg output:
vboxdrv: ffffffffa0991020 VMMR0.r0
EMT[27091]: segfault at 1036d0000 ip 00007f8a41413449 sp 00007f8a29b1dc38 error 6 in VBoxVMM.so[7f8a412f2000+297000]

I updated related ticket 14286 with the same information.

Hello there,

I am having exactly the same problem after installing a SUSE patch on SUSE 13.2 which installed VBox 5.0. Before installing the update, I had up and running VBox 4.3.36.

I think the update upgrades VBox to 5.0 and for some reason fails to open up the VMs that I had created on VBox 4.3.36.

I can see that this issue was reported last year, however I cannot find a workaround for it.

Any help will be appreciated.
