    VirtualBox is not working on my computer


    I have an Asus Power Spec PC running Windows 10 Pro 22H2. Virtual machines on VirtualBox are not working. I don't have Hyper-V or any other virtual machine software, and I have tried increasing the memory, updating my software, and using the manual that comes up when you press F1, but these have all failed me. Any way to solve my problem will be much appreciated and thank you in advance. If you have an answer and you see this, please reply or email me at *** Email address is removed for privacy ***.

    Hello,

    The system finds VirtualBox and suggests to uninstall it manually, to run the update, but I am unable to find any app/program containing it. It's not shown in the Uninstall or Change the Program list. I do not have any Oracle installed on my PC either.

    Kind regards,

    TK

    Been there and done that. Followed through enabling the 3D acceleration and as told i hit the "Install Guest Addition" to install the drivers in the guest operating system, after that i was told to reboot the VirtualBox and came to the blue windows XP shutdown screen... It was on that screen for more then 30mins and so i force a shutdown on the original Win7 OS to et rid of the VirtualBox OS shutdown screen. Rebooted and tested VirtualBox with the game and got the same error message as shown in my first post.

    EDIT: Gone through all the steps till i came to rebooting the VirtualBox OS. After the system coming up normally, i checked if the 3D acceleration is enabled by running dxdiag. Here is what i get...

    The tutorials provided are just a list of troubleshooting steps. Use only the steps which apply to you.

    Since none of the troubleshooting steps here worked, I'd suggest you do a Clean install.
