Ticket #8267 – Description
initial v5 1 I'm encountering issues identical to [http://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/2836 Bug #2836] on myMacBook Pro running MacOS X 10.6. The clock of my Windows 7 guest would freeze every now and then (about 30-60 seconds) for about 10 seconds, and then resume. The guest OS would not freeze itself and stay mostly responsive but anything related to time elapsing would get stuck, like the clock gadget, resource monitors and the most annoying, any kind of animations. Any solutions posted for similar problem does not seem to do anything (or much). A consequence of the problem is that the time will appear to run slow (I originally thought this was the problem and not an effect)1 I'm encountering issues identical to #2836 on my !MacBook Pro running MacOS X 10.6.

However a lot of applications still rely on the clock time running, and will appear stuck / frozen but are in fact mostly responsive to input. 4 4 5 Here is my configuration: 6 Hardware: MacBook Pro 5,2 (Unibody 17'' mid-2009) Core 2 Duo 2.8 GHz, memory 8GB7 Host OS: MacOS X Snow Leopard 10.6.6 running 64 bit kernel 5 Here is my configuration:[[BR]] 6 Hardware: !MacBook Pro 5,2 (Unibody 17" mid-2009) Core 2 Duo 2.8 GHz, memory 8GB[[BR]] 7 Host OS: MacOS X Snow Leopard 10.6.6 running 64 bit kernel[[BR]] 8 8 Guest OS: Windows 7 64 bit, ACPI, SATA controller (vm info output attached) 9 9 10 10 I've tried the following: 11 * Enable or disable HPET12 * Switch between Virtualized TSC or Use Real TSC13 * Disable the ACPI battery and AC adapter in the guest Windows device manager14 * Stop Guest Addition service.11 * Enable or disable HPET 12 * Switch between Virtualized TSC or Use Real TSC 13 * Disable the ACPI battery and AC adapter in the guest Windows device manager 14 * Stop Guest Addition service. 15 15 16 16 Other things I've tried: 17 * Disable host caching of the SATA controller17 * Disable host caching of the SATA controller 18 18 19 19 I also attached the log file of my last try that had HPET on, using real TSC, ACPI battery device disabled, Guest Additions not running.
