[regression][7.0.2?] Windows XP guest has suddenly stopped working and causes VBox Internal Error

Description
All of a sudden my Windows XP guest which I've used for almost a decade without any modifications (I always revert to a snapshot I created back then) has stopped working.
It did work with VirtualBox 7.0. It probably even worked with VirtualBox 7.0.2 with Linux kernel 5.19.16. I cannot be sure. I will attach a log file.
I can even send this guest in its entirety to VirtualBox developers if necessary. There's nothing private/personal about it.

It was still running on a different virtual desktop. Never mind.
It's startable, only it doesn't work.

The guest doesn't even start in safe mode. Instant reboot before you see:
We apologize for the inconvenience, but Window does not start successfully. A recent hardware or software change might have caused this.
Guest OS: Windows XP SP2 32bit.

A log file for an instant reboot (pressed Pause as soon as I saw the VBox BIOS screen)
Oh, and I cannot even power it on any longer. What??
