Description
B.H.
I'm using VBox 3.0.2 on a 64bit Ubuntu 9.04 host. 4 GB of RAM, Intel QuadCore
CPU, no hardware virtualization support.
I've installed guest Windows XP home edition (32 bit), installed all updates and SP3, then installed a newly released Skype 4.1.
Skype's installation went without problems, but then, when skype was trying to log me in, after 20-30 seconds of "Logging in..." screen, the host system was suddenly reset without any error message.
After reset, i didn't find any "kernel panic" reports in the logs, the system just died.
The same thing happens every time i try to run skype in the guest.
I've tried to use a NAT networking and also a briged networking with the same results.
I don't currently have a VBox.log to attach, i hope to remember to sent it latter when i get to that system again
Thanks!
