  1. You were supposed to follow these steps when you filed the bug, and provide a VBox.log:

    Attach a (full) log file ("Machine" menu/"Show Log" in the main VirtualBox Manager window) straight away to save time for you and for us. The log file contains a lot of useful information about both the host and the guest systems as well as information about what happened during a particular machine run. Please do not cut and paste it.


  1. Consider changing your favorite internet search engine. There should be plenty of results about this issue on the VirtualBox forums, but the search engine you're using now, does not seem to return any results for some reason.
  1. Speaking of, it's usually better and faster, if issues get first addressed in the VirtualBox forums, a lot more eyes. More than 95% of the issues are resolved over there, which keeps the developers focusing on the bug fixes and enhancements, and there is no need for another ticket to keep track of. For example, yours is not a bug and someone from the developers has to deal with it and close it as "Invalid".
