Hi together,

yesterday I installed VirtualBox 5 to be run on an Windows 10 Pro-System. VirtualBox is running, but when I try to start a Virtual Machine to install an OS (in this case Windows 8.1 Pro) on this VirtualBox, I always receive an error message:

Fehlercode:
E_FAIL (0x80004005)
Komponente:
MachineWrap
Interface:
IMachine {f30138d4-e5ea-4b3a-8858-a059de4c93fd}

Does anybody know, how to solve this problem?

I would like to run Windows 8.1 Pro on a Virtual Machine on my PC running Windows 10 Pro!

Many thanks in advance!
Matthias

Please keep Windows 10 host discussions in the dedicated topic.
We will allow topics to be opened about it after offcial support has been announced by Oracle.
