One thing is special about this Windows 7 PC: It uses UEFI. All the other dozens of my Windows 7 PCs, where VirtualBox works like a charm, all use BIOS. Maybe some kind of security properties do differ somehow. ---
Event Viewer: System/Information --- A service was installed in the system. Service Name: VBox Support Driver Service File Name: C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox\VBoxDrv.sys Service Type: kernel mode driver Service Start Type: demand start Service Account: --- System/Error The VBox Support Driver service failed to start due to the following error: The system cannot find the file specified. --- In reality the driver file exists: C:\Windows\System32\drivers\vboxdrv.sys and C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox\drivers\vboxdrv.sys yet, it is completely absent from Windows Device Manager (driver list). So the driver was copied, but not installed. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ VBox-users-community mailing list VBox-users-community@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/vbox-users-community _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe: mailto:vbox-users-community-requ...@lists.sourceforge.net?subject=unsubscribe
