Windows 10 guest crashes after recent update from MS [Solved]

Post by dwreid55 »

As of this date 4/16/2016 I ran the Windows Update to patch Windows 10. Windows 10 requested a reboot. Upon reboot, the guest OS starts, completes the "updating Windows" messages. At 100% it tries to start the UI and then aborts without an error to the host OS. The host OS (Ubuntu 14.04 LTS Memory 16 GB Processor AMD FX-8120 Eight cores 64bit OS video - Gallium 0.4 on AMD BARTS) reports a crash report.

Restarting Virtual Box - no change.
Restarting the host OS - no change.

Unable to boot guest OS at all without crash.

If I can provide additional information, please advise.

Thanks.

David

Please post the VM log file of a sample session. 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.
