AutoCAD Crashes VirtualBox

Reported by: Owen Whitehouse Owned by:
Component: guest additions Version: VirtualBox 4.0.2
Keywords: CAD, AutoCAD, SketchUp, GuestAdditions Cc:
Guest type: other Host type: other

Description (last modified by Frank Mehnert)

The 4.0.2 version of the Guest Additions cause guests to crash when used with AutoCAD or other CAD applications, like SketchUp.

Host is Windows 7 Enterprise x64, guest is any version of Windows.

After upgrading VirtualBox to 4.0.2, I began upgrading GuestAdditions in each VM. After I had a few done, I noticed that running AutoCAD caused the entire VM to go immediately to a restart, no warnings. Looking through the logs shows an automatic reset of the VM after enabling GL mode.

Hi OwenW.

Try to disable 3D support. Regards.

comment:2 by Owen Whitehouse, 13 years ago

I did disable 3D, the error still occurred.

comment:3 by Olivier Booklage, 13 years ago

My method : Install AutoCAD 64b with 2D and 3D active on clean windows7 x64 (Addons with 3D support also) Stop the machine and remove 3D support Run the machine and launch AutoCAD.

My host : mandriva 2010.2 x64 My Guest : windows 7 x64

Regards.

Old version of Guestadds solving this problem. Try degrading it to version 3.2.1!

comment:5 by Frank Mehnert, 13 years ago

gojkok, which was the highest version of the Guest Additions you tried which did not work? There are some known bugs in older 4.0.x releases, did you try the 4.0.8 Additions?

frank, do I need to have version 4.0.8 of VB to install the 4.0.8 version of Guest Additions? BTW, I downgraded my Guest Additions to 3.2.6 and it works well enough.

comment:7 by Owen Whitehouse, 13 years ago

I just upgraded to v4.1 and installed latest version of the Guest Additions. The AutoCAD crash is still occurring.

Still reproducible with VBox 4.1.2? Can you provide a Windows crash dump when this happens?
