virtualbox.org

Dear Sir,
I am using Virtual Box version 5.1.4 and i am running ubuntu 14.04 in it. My host operating system is windows 7 sp1. The problem that i am facing is that-- From mine ubuntu terminal i am trying to download some files which takes hours. But after some time i found that mine VM gets hanged and as a observation i found that arrow pointer is not there and also there is no activity on SATA hard disk indicator as well as on network activity indicator. I have shut down mine vm and again started but the problem is same.And i am observing this particular behavior after i have taken the snapshot of mine running machine.

Please tell me what to do now.

Regards
Aditya

You don't mention two critical clues:
- Is your host 64-bit?
- Are you using VirtualBox shared folders for the transfer?
If you answered yes to these questions, take a look at ticket #15662: Shared Folders freeze under pressure.
If not, post a VBox.log. ZIPped.

Sir,
Thanks mine machine is 32 bit having 4 GB RAM and out if which i have given 2 GB to mine VM.

Sir,
yes I HAVE ENABLED THE SHARED FOLDER OPTION BUT WHILE DOWNLOADING FROM THE INTERNET I M NOT USING THIS FOLDER BY ANY CHANCE.MINE ONLY OBSERVATION IS THIS :- WHEN DOWNLODING THEN BOTH N/W ACTIVITY AS WELL AS SATA HARD DISCTIVITY IN THE VM GUI IS BLINKING GREEN AND RED CONTINUOSLY. ONCE IT GETS HANGED NONE NO ACTIVITY IS THERE EITHER ON N/W ICON OR ON SATA HARD DISK ICON IN THE VM .
