I've been having a lot of trouble over the past couple of days. I set up a Win7 work environment in Virtualbox and everything has been running smoothly until I tried to use Remote Desktop. I can log in to the remote machine normally and everything works for a while but then all of a sudden, my guest Win7 machine restarts due to a BSOD. I thought it might be a memory or space issue so I upped the VM's RAM to 4GB (Host system is 8GB) and the HDD to 45 GB. I also enabled I/O APIC and PAE/NX which improved performance on the guest machine but running RDP for a few minutes still triggers a BSOD. I also increased video memory from 128MB to 256MB. I don't know what else to do and I don't know how to analyze dump files. I was able to see that the last 4 error check strings were the following:

  • KERNEL_MODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED
  • IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
  • MEMORY_MANAGEMENT
  • KERNEL_MODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED

I'm attaching the last 4 minidumps in here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B-hWzWXaH29hZXVVbjVmTkV4Vkk/edit?usp=sharing

Any help would be immensely helpful. Thank you all in advance.

Cheers, Luis

The problem was that virtualization was disabled on the host machine's BIOS which prevented me from accessing the Acceleration tab in the VM's settings. Once I changed the host machine's BIOS settings to enable virtualization, I was able to enable Hardware virtualization in the VirtualBox settings and the problem went away. I also added extra disk space for good measure.
