Please could you try the latest 5.0 Windows test build and check if you still experience the crashes?

[Frank Mehnert]

Please reopen if still relevant with VBox 5.0.20.

I'm seeing this with 5.0.20 on Oracle Linux 7. The guest is Windows 8.1. I thought I had corrupted it somehow, so reinstalled it into a new disk image. The new install was working fine until it applied the latest Windows updates, then it ended up back in exactly the state described above.

[Frank Mehnert]

dseven, please attach a VBox.log file from such a VM session.

[Frank Mehnert]

dseven, if your BSOD has the exact same parameters as written in the description then it looks like this is a Windows problem: Error 0x00000100 means LOADER_BLOCK_MISMATCH according to google, see ​here. Seems to me like you need to repair your Windows image. Perhaps your Windows guest update did not successfully finish?

[iain MacDonnell]

I found ​this, and was able to get my original image to boot again - it backed out some Windows updates as it came up. I'm still not entirely sure whether or not this is a VBox issue, but I suppose we can close it again for now.

I haven't been able to work on this problem for some time. I tested using VirtualBox 5.0.22 and still see the same problem. I tried removing Microsoft update KB3146723 from the applied updates and still see the problem (or MS Update does not honor the remove KB3146723 request)

I will try and test again with VirtualBox 5.1 release.

Does it works with VirtualBox 5.1 release?

Thank you.

I tested using ​VirtualBox 5.0.22 and still see the same problem. I tried removing Microsoft update KB3146723 from the applied updates and still see the problem

Futari Virtual Box is Not Good Nowadays. I tried removing Microsoft update KB3146723 from the applied updates and still see the problem
