The software vendor for our ERP system (which was only compatible with El Capitan or older OS X) gave us a 4 month notice that they were sunsetting the software with no feasible upgrade path (and disabling the ability for it to run past the deadline). Our original iMacs are 2011 models and won't accept an OS X version newer than El Capitan, unfortunately. My bad for not specifically Googling 'SoftwareX won't run on Apple Silicon' for each piece of software we use. It wasn't until we got the first shipment of iMacs that I actually tried to start a VM and got a kernel error that I realized I was hosed. I just didn't have a virtual machine to start at the time. So I did a demo and VirtualBox installed on the new M1 and it ran just fine, no grayed out icon with a slash through it, so I thought it would work. But all they could say is 'we don't know'. Maybe I'm alone in my thinking that when you stop supporting product X and replace it with an improved product Y, one would expect that the new version will still do all the things the previous version did AND MORE.Īnd it would have been nice for the folks at Apple to have told me about these issues when I asked them BEFORE we decided to purchase 15 of these not-quite-ready-for-prime-time M1 iMacs. These new Macs also won't talk to our Apple Server to do network user authentication when Filevault is turned on. We have Parallels on a couple of Macs, but it's soooo bloated that you can't get decent performance while it's running so I don't see it as a viable option. So I can't boot into an ARM based Linux Distro either. Also they got rid of bootcamp and you can't boot from a USB stick either. I thought 'Rosetta' was supposed provide x86 emulation to bridge the gap between x86 apps and Apple Silicon but apparently not.

Interestingly if I close the window and choose 'send the shut down signal' it seems to spur the VM to life for a few seconds, but only a few seconds, and the guest never behaves like it's been told to shut down. Still dead slow, still reporting 100% Guest load and nearly 0% VMM load almost continuously. Note there was a BSOD within the first minute then it booted again. Is there a way to force it onto the Hyper-V engine? The Runtime Information continues to report the VM Execution Engine as Native API. I thought perhaps if VMware made use of Hyper-V maybe VirtualBox would as well, but it appears not. It performed okay but I prefer to stick with VirtualBox for a variety of reasons. The VMware installer detected the presence of Hyper-V and I believe it was actually running on the Hyper-V engine. Thought I'd take another run at this, having installed Hyper-V and VMware Player in the meantime. General notice: If you want to provide further VBox.log files, please power down the VM beforehand, so that the log files contain the statistics at the end.

You could try how your Windows 10 VM behaves when giving it only 1 vCPU with and without the I/O APIC. For an installed Windows 7, I don't know if it can cope with such a hardware change. AFAIK, you cannot enable it for an installed Windows XP, but you can disable it for an installed Windows 10.

It is currently enabled in the Windows 7 VM. Windows 10 VM), but not for single core CPUs (e.g. It is necessary for multi core CPUs (e.g. One difference I noticed is the I/O APIC setting. In the middle we have the Windows 7 VM exhibiting the slowness only via the time stamps of the log messages, so you need a trained eye to see it. On the other end, we have the Windows 10 VM exhibiting the slowness with explicit log messages (heartbeat issues).

On one end, we have the Windows XP VM exhibiting no slowness whatsoever. Just noticed I left the W10 VM sitting on the login screen while I registered for this forum and wrote this message, and it has had a spontaneous BSOD with an IRQL NOT LESS OR EQUAL error and rebooted itself. 26 itself isn't entirely stable but it runs for a good couple of days before it starts acting up. In my case I upgraded directly from v6.1.26 because I was experiencing issue issue #20627 (Failed to load R0 module) with v6.1.28 and 6.1.30. The host is not starved for resources and remains responsive, indicating 25-35% CPU usage per running VM, whereas the CPU load in the session information window shows pinned 100% pretty much continuously. I can't even complete the Guest Additions upgrade on either system. Likewise an Ubuntu 20.04 guest is so slow as to be unusable.

After upgrading to v6.1.32, a 64 bit W10 21H2 guest running on a 64 bit W10 21H2 host takes over 20 minutes to boot to the login screen.
