Description

Hi

I have done Virtual box setup in Host machine which has 8GB RAM. System Base memory allocated for Virtual box is 4GB.

Now i copied Virtual Disk Image in External Hard disk then trying to open in another host machine which has 2GB RAM (Host Machine RAM size).

I cant able to run Virtual machine in Host machine which has 2GB RAM.. System is not booting..

Kindly let us know what could be the reason for system not booting into other system which has 2GB RAM.

Vitual Box Setup: OS - Win 7 (64 Bit)

If you kept the guest RAM size setting of 4GB that is to be expected.

The memory you assign to the guest has to be available on the host system. It's just not possible to run a 4GB guest on a host with 2GB (swap space doesn't count here).
