F@H on Host + Sun xVM = crash

Post by alpha754293 »

Host system:
Q9550
GA-EP45-UD3P
4x 2GB G.Skill DDR2-800
1x WD 36 GB 10krpm SATA
2x WD 250GB 7,2krpm SATA
BFG GTX260OC
PC Power & Cooling 610 W

OS: Windows XP Pro SP2 32-bit

Guest:
Sun xVM Virtual Box v2.1.4 x86
Windows XP Pro SP2 32-bit
Guest additions installed.

DO NOT, I REPEAT, DO NOT start the VM with F@H (CPU and/or GPU clients) running; results in crash.

Works fine for me with clients running on the host. Using both Windows XP and Linux as host and guest.

It will RUN with it, but you can't START it with it running already.

Start without, and then you should be ok to run otherwise. I haven't gotten that far into testing it yet, but I just crashed my system while download 2 GB result file (didn't use a download manager to restart). So :(
