Try to increase the amount of memory allocated to the VBox XR.  I had the same error a while back, the bumped it up to 2gig and away it went.

Harold, et al, I have XRv running nicely on a laptop Windows 7.  I imported
XRv into VirtualBox which then created the virtual XR instance.  I then see
it in GNS3 Jungle and it runs nicely in GNS3 Jungle. (nevermind that it's a
memory hog)



Now, question is, I tried to recreate this in a data center where my linux
engineer created me a virtual pc machine running windows 7.  I did all the
same stuff, except now XRv crashes when trying to boot up.



Any ideas?



Last bootup messages prior to crash are shown below. I will provide more
info if you need it to tell why this is occurring.

This is XRv 5.3
