Windows 10 32 Bit Virtualbox

Posted on |

I am using VirtualBox 5.2.32 on a Windows 10/64-bit system with a Windows XP VM to run a number of 16-bit programs that won't run under W10 (they run in a cmd.exe box on the virtual XP machine). Speeds are VERY slow when some programs are performing a lot of I/O. Something that takes a few seconds with native WXP, takes several minutes with the virtual XP machine. Similarly, MS-Word 'Select all > F9 (perform calculations)' takes

longer with the virtual machine, as do several other I/O intensive 32-bit programs.
VirtualboxI've tried to speed it up as follows:
• Increasing 'base memory' from 1024MB to 3584Mb didn’t help. More than that (with 128MB video memory) prevents the virtual machine from loading. But 1024MB works fine with a W10 (332-bit) or Linux Mint (64-bit) host.
• Enabling I/O APIC didn't help
• Can’t select multiple processors (option is greyed out on x64 host, but not on x32 or Linux host!)
• Can’t enable VT-x/AMD-V (Acceleration tab is greyed out on x64 host, but not on x32 or Linux host, which do have it selected!)

• Can’t enable Nested Paging (Acceleration tab is greyed out on x64 host, but not on x32 or Linux host, which do have it selected!)
• Increasing the display memory to 128MB didn’t help
• Enabling 3D Acceleration and/or 2D Video Acceleration didn't help
• Unchecking 'Use Host I/O cache' made no difference
• Checking 'Solid-state drive' made no difference, even though the .VDI file is stored on a SSD
• Excluding c:VirtualMachines from Defender scan didn’t help, nor did disabling Avira in the VM
• Turning off indexing (in the virtual machine) didn’t help
• Defragmenting the virtual hard disk (in the virtual machine) didn't help
• Changing the power plan (in the host machine) to 'high-performance' didn't help
Any other suggestions?

SOLVED 08/11/2019: After reading viewtopic.php?f=1&t=62339, and following those suggestions, I discovered that Virtualization was not enabled in the BIOS of my new motherboard. Enabling it solved the problem. Many thanks to Mpack and Socrates.

Several months ago, I decided it was past time to set up a Windows 7 virtual machine on my home computer. It’s not something I need on a daily basis, but I want to have that environment available in case some future Windows 10 update changes something to the point where one of the programs I use no longer works.

I opted to go with the 32-bit version of Windows 7, and found a legitimate license key for sale on eBay. Once I had the installation media in my possession, I fired up VirtualBox. If you’re wanting to do what I did, here are the steps:

  1. In VirtualBox Manager, click New. Enter the name for your virtual machine and select the type and version; as mentioned previously, I’m using Windows 7 (32-bit). Click Next.
  2. Specify amount of memory—I chose 2048 MB—then click Next.
  3. Select Create a virtual hard disk now, then click Create.
  4. Choose your hard disk file type. The recommended and default setting is VDI (VirtualBox Disk Image), but you can choose something different if you have a particular need. Click Next.
  5. Select type of storage on physical hard disk. I selected Fixed size. Click Next.
  6. VirtualBox defaults to a virtual hard drive of 25 GB. Adjust this if necessary—I bumped it up to 40 GB since I have plenty of space on the drive where I’m storing VMs—then click Create. The virtual hard drive creation process takes several minutes.
  7. Start your virtual machine. Select your startup disk (or .ISO file) and click Start.
  8. Proceed through the Windows installation process:
    1. Choose language to install, time and currency format, and keyboard or input method, then click Next.
    2. Click Install now.
    3. Check the “I accept the license terms” checkbox, then click Next.
    4. Choose the custom (advanced) installation type.
    5. With Disk 0 Unallocated Space selected, click drive options (advanced), then click New, then click Apply and click OK.
    6. After setup finishes create disk partitions, click Next. Setup will take several minutes to install files.
    7. After the virtual machine restarts, enter the user name and computer name. Click Next.
    8. Enter a password and click Next.
    9. On the Windows product key screen, click Skip.
    10. Choose Windows Update settings.
    11. Select time zone, then click Next.
    12. Select your computer’s current location, either home or work.
    13. After Windows starts, change the screen resolution; default is 800×600 pixels.
    14. While holding the Windows key on your keyboard, press the Pause/Break button to launch the system information window.
    15. Click the “3 days until automatic activation. Activate Windows now” link.
    16. Click Activate Windows online now.
    17. Enter your Windows product key, then click Next. After activation completes, click Close.
    18. Install Windows updates, restarting the virtual machine as necessary.
  9. After you finish installing and updating Windows, go to VirtualBox’s Devices menu and choose Insert Guest Additions CD image. When the AutoPlay window appears, click Run VBoxWindowsAdditions.exe, then tell the UAC prompt Yes.
  10. Click Next.
  11. Click Next again.
  12. Click Install.
  13. When the Windows Security window appears, click Install.
  14. When the Windows Security window appears again, click Install.
  15. Click Finish to reboot.

After the virtual machine restarts, you might need to adjust the screen resolution again. After that, you’re done!
