chickenbutt Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 vmware is poorly-designed bloatware with poo for responsibility.. thinapp is awesome thoughvirtual pc has a crap footprint and very little stability.. worse in 8virtualbox has a crap footprint on the guest and uses SAMBA and SMB for what little sharing it has, but usability, patching, support is unmatched Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

opc0d3 Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 have been using Vbox for some time now, no complaints, although VPC worked fine, too. I prett much agree with cozofdeath there what CPU do you use ? On my tests, HARD BP and MEmory BP doesn't work well.. Can you test it for me on your PC ? I've related it here... I do prefer VMWARE because everything works fine.. but have to be the Workstation to take snapshots (I do malware analysis)... []'s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deepzero Posted December 10, 2012 Author Share Posted December 10, 2012 make sure virtualization not somehow disabled in the BIOS (it`s usually disabled by default) and update to the latest vbox version 424.If that doesnt help, post in the virtualbox forum. what hw are you using? latest vbox version?

opc0d3 Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 I didn't checked in BIOS.. I'll do it soon as i come home... Yes, i'm using the lastest version.. I'm using an Intel Core i5 3450... I've searched everywhere and only VMWARE solved my problem! []'s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opc0d3 Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 My problem was that Virtualization option in the bios config....How did you know that was this option ? Did you had the same problem that i've had ? Now i'm curious about this option, I didn't knew about it... Thanks, DeepZero! Really appreciate your help! Tks!

LCF-AT Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 Hi, so I also have still the problem with VBox that the HWBP / MEM BP does not work.So where is the setting option in VBox for "Virtualization option in the bios config"?Can't find any entry which I can change. Hey Deep,kannst die Lösung mal einfach und fix für mich erläutern wo man das einstellen kann oder wo man diese Option finden kann,bitte?Ich sehe hier nur was von Anzeige und Netzwerk und den anderen Kram aber sonst nix. Danke schonmal gel. greetz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deepzero Posted December 11, 2012 Author Share Posted December 11, 2012 (edited) what`s your hardware? I have this feeling that your pre-stoneage cpu doesnt have any hw virtualization features, leave alone an option to turn them on or off. So was gibts nur in neueren CPUs. edit: your inbox is full, check c0rk. Edited December 11, 2012 by deepzero Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaRKuS_TH-DJM Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 VMware Workstation has Drag&Drop Support, Virtualbox only Shared Folders, but Drag&Drop Support will be supported someday (it's in the making). VMware Workstation also supports more OS. But: If you enable the Host I/O cache in VirtualBox, the CPU resources usage is higher - and on my system, because of higher I/O even 2x faster than VMware Workstation. You need strong CPU and much RAM to use the Host I/O Cache. On Windows XP guest, you get the maximum if you enable Host I/O Cache, disable IO-APIC and set it to 1 processor in settings. On the other side, VirtualBox sometimes has bugs with networking (especially NAT under heavy load). It gets updated frequently, so i'm sure they get all bugs fixed and it has a good community and support. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
