Erratic performance on Windows 10 with Virtualbox 5.0.4.

[baseballbob]

I had 2 separate issues when upgrading a VirtualBox machine from

Windows 7 to Windows 10 on a Lenovo Thinkpad T420 that did not occur on a very similar virtual machine running on an Apple Mac Mini (2012 model).

1. I usually have the Windows display set to turn off automatically

after 10 minutes. In Windows 10, it'll turn off OK, but then the machine hangs up and will not accept any keystrokes, forcing you to shut down and reboot.

2. Intermittently, network requests fail with "unable to contact IP

driver" for all IP interfaces. Existing network connections aren't affected, but any new sessions will fail. After a while, this condition usually resets itself but then fails again.

3. The Microsoft Store crashes when searching for an app and looking

at its description; no errors; just exits out immediately.

The host is RedHat Linux Enterprise version 6.7.

Please attach the missing VBox.log file for such a VM session.

working better with latest Windows 10 builds; only crash remaining is on display shutoff.

ok in recent VirtualBOx builds like 5.0.20 and 5.0.22. Ticket can be closed.

Thanks for the feedback.
