The VirtualBox support driver - Issue when starting guest.

Post by JesterDev »

After a few days of trying I finally got it working. But now I get this error:

Code: Select all

The VirtualBox support driver which is running is from a different version of VirtualBox. You can correct this by stopping all running instances of VirtualBox and reinstalling the software..
VBox status code: -1912 (VERR_VM_DRIVER_VERSION_MISMATCH).


Result Code: 
0x80004005
Component: 
Console
Interface: 
IConsole {d5a1cbda-f5d7-4824-9afe-d640c94c7dcf}[/cpde]

I do not have any other versions of VB installed! Can someone please offer some advice.

Resolved.

Just a bit of reading would have saved me from this one!

If you have a 64-bit kernal, you must install the 64-Bit version.

I'm quite surprised that no one replied with an answer. Anyway, posted for future reference.
