Replying to frank:
I don't see a crash in your logfile. Please attach a logfile of a VM which crashed.
Please check my new log. The previous one was not the crash one.

Please have a look at #11039. There are two problems: First (the actual problem), VirtualBox cannot allocate enough memory for the guest. The reason is unknown. It might be caused by some application running on the host (see the mentioned ticket, also see #10121). The other problem is a bug in VirtualBox which makes your VM crash instead of pausing it and asking the user to free more memory as it is supposed to do. That bug will be fixed eventually but we have no real solution for the first problem.

Thank you for reply, but it really confuse my, course windows server 2008 R2 runs only VMs, and it has 16Gb of RAM.
Is it might windows 2008 r2 problem with new hardware?
