If anyone had similar virtualbox experiences in the past and could share how they found the solution, would appreciate it. This transition to a new PC+OS has been very stressful. The reason I made this thread is to find the general direction of where to seek the solution.
I have done Google/Youtube research before posting this thread and have heard things something about Kernel update, but knowing nothing about what that means - I decided not to risk changing settings that might create some permanent damage. I don't know if this roots from the same problem, but really hope it does. A friend of mine with the same virtualbox setup has less ram/processors dedicated and it runs smooth as wind. Entire system is encrypted (default Linux encryption during install)Īnother thing I noticed (created separate thread about this) is that that Virtualbox with Windows on it (VM) is running laggy even though I dedicated 8 processors and 8gb of ram on it. 2 of those times I was configuring settings in virtualbox during the time it froze. Why I think this is happening because of Virtualbox:īecause in all 3 cases, virtualbox was open. This is dangerous as I could have had some important files that would be unsaved due to this.
This happens randomly after 1-2 hours of usage. This has happend 3 times in total over the last 2 days, in both cases I waited around 5-10 minutes for it to unfreeze, nothing happend so had to manually reboot the PC by holding the power button.
The entire system is freezing and I cannot move the cursor, type any keyboards commands - or do anything to even kill any processes. I myself am a Windows user and am in the transition of switching to Linux, very new to all this. Newly built PC (1 week old) + newly installed Linux MINT.
