Description
Hello guys,
I'm new with VirtualBox and I've downloaded it because I would like to install Linux Kali. I've done the right staps but when I want to start Kali it says; 'A critical error has occurred while running the virtual machine and the machine execution has been stopped.'.
I would like to copy and past my logfile over here but I can't do that.
I hope you guys can help me.
A Dutchman,
Robbert

Quote from the log file:
"The guest is trying to switch to the PAE mode which is currently disabled by default in VirtualBox. PAE support can be enabled using the VM settings (System/Processor)"
Enable PAE and try again.
Support questions really should go to https://forums.virtualbox.org though.
