#9675 obsolete Windows 7 & Visual Stidio 2010 BSOD harry_x
Description

When I do clean intall of Windows 7 64bit and VS 2010, then create new project and move item from "toolbox" in VS to newly designed form, Windows results in BSOD and restarts.

Workaround is to install VBox guest additions with WDDM support (but 3D acceleration doesnt have to be enabled in VBox). However when in safe mode it works even without WDDM drivers from VBox - so i think this is some bug in VBox Guest Services.

#9677 obsolete install of eComStation 2.1 under MacOS X.6.5 host hangs at graphics driver Dushan Mitrovich
Description

The host is MacOS X.6.5 running on a Mac Pro (purchased Dec. 2006). Every attempt to install eComstation 2.1 as a VM under VirtualBox 4.1.2 (_or_ 4.0.12 or 3.2.12 that I've tried, or probably any other version) always hangs (one or another of the CPUs -> 100%) when the installer tries to load a graphics driver. A friend did succeed in installing the same guest VM, with the same minimal basic configuration, under VB 4.1.2 in a Linux host (latest Kubuntu). So the problem is Mac-specific.

The VM configuration has:

Base Memory 512 MB, 1 Processor, VT-x/AMD-V enabled, 16 MB video memory, IDE Controller type: PIIX3, Use host I/O cache (makes no difference), Network adapter: PCnet-FAST III (NAT)

The eCS install is on a .iso file, as is the OS's registration info. Everything else of the VM config. is disabled, including audio.

The eCS 2.1 installer settings are default, though variations (see below) seemed to make no difference.

The guest configuration is also left at Easy Installation (again, variations using Advanced Installation made no difference), except as pointed out by one user: the File system had to be JFS instead of HPFS. With the latter the 1st phase of the install invariably aborted with error code 0x1. In addition, at the Verify Hardware stage, Advanced Power Management was turned off, and at the Configure Network stage the 'Point-to-Point connections' option was unchecked.

In every case the install process would appear to hang at, or immediately after, loading of a graphics driver:

if GRADD was specified the last lines in the Alt-F2 window are

DEVICE=E:\OS2\GRADD.SYS DEVICE=E:\OS2\MDOS\VMANWIN.SYS

if SNAP was specified the last of these lines would be replaced by

DEVICE=E:\OS2\SDDHELP.SYS

eCS 1.2r does run in a VBox VM, but it was installed under Parallels, not VirtualBox. That VM is stored in a .hdd file. In fact, not one of my several dozen attempts to install some version of eCS as a VM under any version of VirtualBox has been successful with Mac OS X as the host.

#9679 obsolete Guest additions confuse clock in linux guest (windows 7 host) Adrian
Description

In broken state, guest reports UTC time as local time. No combination of checkboxes and config files inside or outside of the guest seems to help.

Scenario:

New Windows 7 laptop with Core i7 (Sandy Bridge), 64 bit. Install VirtualBox 4.1.2 Create VM expecting ubuntu 64 bit: notice VBox correctly guesses that the hardware clock will be UTC. Install Ubuntu Desktop 10.04 64bit in new VM, specifying timezone near Hong Kong, guest should be online during installation and therefore do ntp early. Notice that the clock is good before installing guest additions. Install guest additions, clock now shows UTC time, not local time, but thinks it's local time. E.g. on my box in China, at midnight UTC, "date -R" thinks it's midnight in China and 4pm in London (winter), when it's actually 8am in China and midnight in London. Try every combination of /etc/default/rcS -> UTC=yes/no, vbox:settings:guest hw clock=UTC, even using vboxmanage to inhibit clock sync. Nothing helps. This is a total show stopper for me and I'm now installing ubuntu natively, which is a bummer cos windows does some things better, like Chinese characters.
