Dont start after installing guest os (VINF_EM_TRIPLE_FAULT, newer AMD)

После установки гостевой ОС при запуске сразу выдает ошибку

There seems to be lots of these "triple fault" bug reports so I don't know which to comment on. The conclusion we seem to be coming to in the forums is that it mostly seems to affect users of AMD FX series CPUs, and you can work around the problem by turning off nested paging.

Thank you for this information. I closed all duplicates. #12421 is different as the user from that ticket observed the problem on Mac OS X with OpenBSD 5.4 while all the other problems happen only on newer AMD CPUs.

VBox log with Guru Meditation; VINF_EM_TRIPLE_FAULT

[Erwin Orlack]

I am also experiencing this issue. Ubuntu 64 VM on an AMD FX-8350 in Windows 8.1. If I disable Nested Paging, it boots. If it's enabled, it throws the VINF_EM_TRIPLE_FAULT every time.

Please try if this test build fixes this problem: (links expire in ~14 days)

Windows hosts: https://www.virtualbox.org/download/testcase/VirtualBox-4.3.5-91363-Win.exe

Hopefully fixed in VBox 4.3.6.

Hopefully fixed in VBox 4.3.6.

I was experiencing Guru Meditation booting a Win7 64-bit Guest on my 64-bit Ubuntu Host which caused me to file a report on #12198 and roll back to 4.2.20.

However, I'm pleased to report that I just installed 4.3.6 and it works fine. Cheers!

Solved this by changing the version of the cliant to "Windows 8.1" instead of "Windows 8".

Noting that darwinx86-801 also presents a guru VINF_EM_TRIPLE_FAULT critical error by default.

Working around this glitch with VBoxManage --modifyvm <name> --nestedpaging off. When nested paging is disabled, the critical error goes away, but the VM is still not able to boot into the regular Darwin livecd boot menu. It stalls with a black screen and a white underscore cursor marker at the top left.
