Problem loading Kali2 on Win 8.1 w/ virtual box

Post by Amputeez79 »

Good Morning, 1ST Time in Forum.
I am trying to complete a lab for school and when I went to load Kali2 in VBox I got the below screen(attachment). It started to boot fine, screen came up with "Loading....." on the top then I get this. Please not that for the lab we had to change the Shared Clipboard & Drag n' Drop to BiDirectional. Not sure if that matters. Also it was booting fine 2 weeks ago when my lab called for Kali2. Thanks.

First time? According to this viewtopic.php?f=6&t=70485&p=336528#p336528 you have asked the same kind of question before and were given a request to provide the necessary information to be able to help. We still need to see the guests log file ( as an attachment )

I had 4 different logs from this one vbox-vbox3. Which one do you need?

VirtualBox VM 5.0.2 r102096 win.amd64 (Aug 13 2015 17:23:32) release log
00:00:02.395455 Oracle VM VirtualBox Extension Pack (Version: 5.0.4 r102546; VRDE Module: VBoxVRDP)
These versions must match or bad things can happen

Code: Select all

00:00:02.393100 Host RAM: 8075MB total, 1021MB available
00:00:03.057829   RamSize           <integer> = 0x0000000040000000 (1 073 741 824, 1 024 MB)
You are over commiting the RAM. Close some host programs to allow the guest to actually have what it needs

Code: Select all

00:00:03.058228 HM: HMR3Init: Falling back to raw-mode: VT-x is not available
Since your i7-3770 processor is capable of hardware virtualization I am guessing you have Hyper-v installed and this is keeping anyone else from using it. Check and if you have it installed remove it or otherwise disable it.

Thank you so much. I did just recently put hyper-v on my tower and figured that was blocking VB from running. I'll will make those changes. Thank u again
