I had Virtual Box 3.2 working fine, emulating 32-bit Windows XP in a 64-bit Windows 7 host. Then I upgraded to VirtualBox 4.0.4, and everything seemed to work (after I installed a couple of things -- USB2.0 support, Guest Additions).
Then I restored a snapshot that was taken under version 3.2, and now I've lost everything. I get the error message:
The selected virtual machine is *inaccessible*. Please inspect the error message shown
below and press the **Refresh** button if you want to repeat the accessibility check:
Could not find an open hard disk with UUID {b0e666ef-1041-415a-8329-876b337e1958}.
Result Code:
VBOX_E_OBJECT_NOT_FOUND (0x80BB0001)
Component:
VirtualBox
Interface:
IVirtualBox {d2de270c-1d4b-4c9e-843f-bbb9b47269ff}
I tried creating a new virtual machine from the vdi file, but it locks up when loading WINDOWS\System32\DRIVERS\lfsfilt.sys
. I tried re-installing version 3.2, but I get exactly the same problems.
I have a VirtualBox.xml
file in my .VirtualBox
directory, and various files (Virtual Dell.xml, Virtual Dell.xml-prev etc.) in .VirtualBox\Machines\Virtual Dell
.
Help please! How do I get my virtual machine back?
