[SOLVED] Virutal machine error after recent Virutal Box update

[GatesHater52]

I have been running a windows 2000 installation which worked fine until vbox updated early this week. If the CPU did not support virualization, why did it work?

[Valtam]

I am not sure, looking at your cpu flags I can't see a reference to virtualization.

Failed to open a session for the virtual machine XP_64.

Unsupported version 11 of data unit 'vga' (instance #0, pass 0xffffffff) (VERR_SSM_UNSUPPORTED_DATA_UNIT_VERSION).

This is the error on my 64 bit PC, after the same update.

Thank you. Discarding the saved state worked, but the older pc I use at work to keep a ms access database. By chance, I backed up the .vdi the last day it worked so I may be able to migrate it to another PC. I don,t really have the luxury of time.

[Valtam]

Don't thank me, thank Google

[GatesHater52]

It comes full circle.That's where I started!

[GatesHater52]

Happy day! Discarded saved state & I am back in business.
