Blue Screen of Death

[Rockcop]

Installed Version 5.0.10 r104061. Now getting blue screen of death (see attached) on all of my Windows XP X64 guests. The host is Windows 7 X64 Enterprise (beam me up). This is the second version of Vbox 5 I've tried.

This report does not belong in the beta section. Moving it to "Windows Guests".

Where did this VM come from? Was it previously working on this host?

Please provide a VM log file. With the VM fully shut down, right click it in GUI. Select "Show Log" and save "VBox.log" (ONLY) to a zip file. Attach the zip here.

I am getting the same thing with my Vista 64 bit VM. This VM has been installed for about a year and worked fine until I upgraded to Virtual BOX 5.0.10 on the weekend.

I see the issue when I try to run any video files in Adobe Flash.

IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL is from a buggy guest device driver. I've only ever seen this error in a P2V'd VM, which doesn't seem to fit here. The trick is in finding out which driver is at fault.

You guys should raise a BugTracker ticket for this.

I likewise am seeing this error / BSOD whenever attempting to view Flash video for the first time, only since upgrading to 5.0.10.

I am using virtualbox-5.0_5.0.10-104061~Debian~jessie_amd64.deb from virtualbox_org/wiki/Linux_Downloads with a Win 7 64bit Home Premium guest.

I notice the guest-additions installed with this package is 5.0.8 r103449, an apparent version mismatch.

There is no requirement for the GAs version to match the host VirtualBox version. Only the extension pack has that rule.

There could be a practical problem if the GAs were newer than the VBox version, because it may then be expecting API functions that don't exist.

OTOH, if VirtualBox is involved at all in a guest driver crash, then it stands to reason that it would be GAs related. Uninstalling the GAs could prove that.

How to uninstall the GAs? It's part of the installations package (.deb). I unmounted the VBoxGuestAdditions.iso via the VM Settings / Storage, but after starting the VM, the Machine / Session Information / Runtime Attributes still displays Guest Additions 5.0.8 r103449.

Further, from the Guest Additions Help 4.1:
Each version of VirtualBox, even minor releases, ship with their own version of the Guest Additions. While the interfaces through which the VirtualBox core communicates with the Guest Additions are kept stable so that Guest Additions already installed in a VM should continue to work when VirtualBox is upgraded on the host, for best results, it is recommended to keep the Guest Additions at the same version.
Starting with VirtualBox 3.1, the Windows and Linux Guest Additions therefore check automatically whether they have to be updated. If the host is running a newer VirtualBox version than the Guest Additions, a notification with further instructions is displayed in the guest
