3D completly broken on Windows 2003 Server / XP64 host [FIXED IN SVN]

[frg]

3D ist completely broken since 4.3.14. AMD HD7770 GPU.

Reported here for beta and ignored:

Affects all Windows guests

Latest good version I know works is 4.13.94724

If you don't plan to fix it just let me know and close the ticket. As a test I converted 2 VMs to vmware and they work well.

In the VBox.log you have:

This most likely mean you don't have properly installed host video card drivers or running VM via remote desktop connection. Could you please confirm if this is a case?

[frg]

Yes I completely deleted the old drivers and also used DDU to clean everything up. Reinstalled 14.4 and it made no difference. Please check vbox-ok.zip. The same drivers work well with 4.13-94724. It looks to me like a detection issue.

frg, please try latest VBox build:

https://www.virtualbox.org/download/testcase/VirtualBox-4.3.17-96426-Win.exe

[frg]

Sorry, made no difference. Still broken.

[frg]

4.3.17-96486 broken too but did output some additional error messages. It looks like the troublesome hardening routines are the culprit. Could you please either fix this or put a switch in to disable them.

Re to your ​post on forums.

Unsigned drivers cannot be loaded on 64bit Windows host. Therefore, host was not using the drivers you have installed. That is where the log messages from comment 1 came from.

I take this issue as invalid.

[frg]

Sorry but you are wrong. This is not Windows Vista / 7 x64. The issue is valid and Virtualbox broken!

[frg]

Allow unsigned drivers

[frg]

And for what's it worth. My LSI SATA, latest Intel network and alot of other drivers are unsigned and work fine.

[bird]

You are right, comment 6 is wrong. A couple of questions that would help fix this:

1. I need the VBoxStartup.log file for this session. You'll find it next to the VBox.log file.
2. Which version of the ATI drivers are these? Did you download them from AMD/ATI? (I'm asking because I downloaded the latest XP drivers from AMD and while the atio6axx.dll file was not signed directly, the associated catalog file was signed correctly and it should be installed on your system. Maybe VBoxStartup.log will shed some more light on that.)

[frg]

I did download the drivers directly from AMD. It might be the missing WHQL signature which causes this. Even with the 4.3.17 network drivers I get the warning message and they show up as unsigned afterwards.

I will upload the log in a minute.

Thanks for taking the time trying to fix this.

FRG

[frg]

vbox.log corresponding to vboxstartup.zip

[bird]

Thanks. Unfortunately, I don't have any ati/amd graphics chip on a box old enough for XP or XP64, so it's a bit difficult to be sure here. But it seems the problem is that XP doesn't catalog 3rd party stuff in c:\windows\system32\catroot[2] like more recent systems seems to be doing. Since the atio6axx.dll is part of a driver, there is a signed catalog file for it installed under c:\windows\system32\drvstore, but the catalog api doesn't look there.

I'll see what I can do to deal with this. Might take a few days unless there is a simple solution...

[bird]

I've made a shot at a workaround. Would be great if you could try out https://www.virtualbox.org/download/testcase/VirtualBox-4.3.17-96501-Win.exe in the next few hours. (If you don't have time, just download 4.3.18 which will probably be out by then.)

Cheers,

bird.

[frg]

Seems to work. Big thanks.
