We're going to need to see a VM log from a complete VM run:
  • Start the VM from cold-boot (not from a paused or saved state) / Observe error / Shutdown the VM (force close it if you have to).
  • With the VM completely shut down (not paused or saved), right-click on the VM in the VirtualBox Manager and select "Show Log".
  • Save only the first "VBox.log", ZIP it and attach it to your response. See the "Upload attachment" tab below the reply form.
BTW, have you tried a mouse instead of the trackpad?

I deleted your RTF formatted log. There is absolutely no reason to save it as RTF. Just follow the directions and simply ZIP the VBox.log, no other "initiatives" please.

And please try a mouse...

  1. Please do NOT bump a thread unless an answer hasn't been given within a week, not less than 24 hours.
  2. Why did you choose a VHD hard disk? Why a SCSI controller? Was this VM created from scratch?
    00:00:01.217062 [/Devices/ahci/0/LUN#0/Config/Parent/] (level 6)
    00:00:01.217063   Format <string>  = "VHD" (cb=4)
    00:00:01.217064   Path   <string>  = "/Volumes/SSD/VM/Web/Web.vhd" (cb=28)
    00:00:01.217065 
    00:00:01.217065 [/Devices/ahci/0/LUN#1/] (level 4)
    00:00:01.217066   Driver <string>  = "SCSI" (cb=5)
  3. Try to set your guest size to a more "standard" resolution, something like 1280x720 for example.

                    screen 0 as 1313x767
  4. Can you describe where exactly do you see the lag?

I created a new virtual machine with a VDI disk.
Installed guest add-ons.
And changed the screen resolution.
When I scroll the page up or down - it twitches. Scrolling is jerky right at the bottom of the page.
Same lags
I guess it's because of the touchpad.

Strange but on Windows 10 everything works fine.
