After .ova import from Oracle VirtualBox the VM´s with Win10 not working

[karuu]

Hello,

when I import a Appliance .ova from VBox to Fusion 11.02 all seems to be ok.

The VM starts with Win 10 (60 GB Hard disc) but after a while the VM stops at 50% oder 66% "devices will be made available".

I wait more than 2 hours but nothing happens anymore

The process vmware-vmx is full loaded 99-100% on one cpu.

I tried this with a Linux VM (about 5 GB hard disc) and it works without problems.

iMac with HighSierra

VirtualBox version 5.2

Fusion 11.02

Enough Memory, CPU, Storage etc.

The VM´s works with VirtualBox without problems.

I tried also PC Migrate - Fusion find the running VM, the code or the ip was accepted, than after name and password of the running Win10 VM I got a "Time out error" and the migration cancel.

Hope you have a solution for me

Hi karuu ,

Could you try the following steps:

1.Re-import the window 10 .ova to Fusion.

2.On the Finish screen, click 'Customize Settings' instead of 'Finish' button.

3.On the settings pane, click 'General' and change OS to 'Microsoft Windows'-> Windows 10 x64(Depends on your OS type).

4.Power on the VM.

Hi nancyz,

1. Re-Import -> several times

2. Customize -> several times

3. Settings pane change to Windows 10 x64 --- > YES now it WORKS - before I never changed  "Other" which was automatically set.

Thank you very much - after the .ova Appliance was imported it took only 15 seconds for the first start til I can use Windows.

Greetings,

Karuu
