Win 7 32b guest VM craash when installing guest additions 7.0.4
| Reported by: | sunrider | Owned by: | |

| Component: | installer | Version: | VirtualBox-7.0.4 |

| Guest type: | Windows | Host type: | Linux |
Description
Host: Ubuntu 20.04.5 LTS kernel 5.4.0-132 Wayland, Gnome 3.36.8
Guest: Windows 7 (32bit) Guest Additions 7.0.2 previously installed
Procedure: Start guest VM; boot; login From VM window menu -> Devices -> Insert Guest Additions CD image... Start Guest additions installer from Windows Explorer Install runs through until the graphics driver is installed. Window resizes shortly to VGA (probably the 'uninstall' of the old driver) then goes back to previous resolution (probably when the new driver is enabled). This is the moment when the VM crashes. Reproducible. This error is new in 7.0.4. It was not there in 7.0.2. The Windows VM can be restarted normally after the abort and the guest additions appear to be installed, including the graphics driver. Vbox Task Bar App reports v7.0.4 installed.

Additional info:
Seems that the Guest Additions install does leave the system in some unstable state. When shutting down, an error message popup appears: "Windows - Bad Image". Will upload a screenshot of that.
