#2309 closed defect
Clicking on detect hardware in XP crashes the VM — at Version 9

Description (last modified by )
I just added a serial port to the machine and wanted to install it in XP as it was not automatically detected, so I went in the device manager and clicked detect new hardware, the screen went black with some nice multicolor screen corruption.
Removing the serial port I just added also crashes the machine. Enabling VT also crashes the same way. In summary, clicking scan for hardware changes in XP just crashes VBox.
The host is Gentoo Linux, latest up-to-date version. The Virtual Machine is Windows XP Service Pack 3.

Please check again with VirtualBox 2.0.4. If the problem still happens, please attach a VBox.log file of such a crashed session. And please enable core dumps for your machine, see here for instructions. If you get a core dump, please send it to frank _dot_ mehnert _at_ sun _dot_ com (if not too big, use some upload service otherwise).

With VBox 2.0.6 I get a Blue Screen instead: STOP: 0x000000F4 (0x00000003, 0xFFB68020, 0xFFB68194, 0x805FB046) See attached Virtual Box logs, one after the VM automatically shutdown, and the other when stopped on the Blue screen.

FYI -- This was a problem for me also, but I was able to install the hardware after temporarily disabling the SATA controller.

I confirm, disabling the SATA port allow me to scan for new hardware without a crash, even if the serial port I added wasn't detected ??

In the Device Manager, with SATA Enabled, I see:
Intel(R) ICH8M-E/M SATA AHCI Controller Date: 2008-06-07 Version: 8.2.0.1001
I've got virtualbox-modules-2.0.6 installed with latest VirtualBox guest tools too.

Scan for new hardware works on IDE, it works with SATA AHCI enabled, switched my XP to SATA Port 0, and it crashed again! Nothing new.

VBox.Log for version 2.2.2 with matching add-ons and modules, after powering off manually.

To be sure: You are talking about a crashing guest, not a crashing host, right?
