Failed to boot windows 11 guest with VBoxSVGA+3D since vbox 7.0 on Archlinux host

[Heku]

Hi Teams, I've used vbox for many years, since vbox 7.0, I'm not able to boot my windows 11 guest when checked VBoxSVGA+3D, I have tried each patch release 7.0.2, 7.0.4, 7.0.6 and now 7.0.8, neithor works, I have to change the Graphics Controller to VBoxVGA as fallback, as this works well so far.

The problem is:

• When checked VBoxSVGA + 3D, I'm not able to boot the windows 11 guest.
• When checked VBoxSVGA only, I'm able to boot the guest, but after a while, the guest will 100% stuck, I have to force poweroff it.

I searched 'failed' in logs, and found this:

00:00:00.617037 rtldrNativeLoad: dlopen('D3DCompiler_47.so', RTLD_NOW | RTLD_LOCAL) failed: D3DCompiler_47.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

My host OS is Archlinux, and I keep it up to date always. My guest OS is Windows 11 with latest guest additions installed.

Let me provide more findings, I'm not sure if this is a vulkan relevant issue, but I found, after installing vulkan-radeon (my CPU is AMD5600G), I'm able to boot into the windows 11 guest, but the UI looks buggy (refer to the screeshot attched), and after a while, the guest will crash and reboot too.

I have the same/similar problem. Host Debian Bullseye 11.7 fully updated. Guest Windows 11 from "Win11_22H2_EnglishInternational_x64v1.iso", fully updated after installation.

Dies (screen goes black) when installing GA if VBoxSVGA is choosen. Seems to work OK with VBoxVGA.

Host screen resolution "dimensions: 3840x2160 pixels (1016x571 millimeters)"

VirtualBox "Version 7.0.8 r156879". Same GA.

Please let me know if I can provide more information.

BTW, according to the documentation ​https://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/7.0.8/UserManual.pdf page 90, it seems that GA is NOT supported on Windows 11. This could of course be part of the problem...

Did you try version 7.0.9-157502? Here is my own ticket for the graphic issues in 7.0.x version: #21515.

Is this issue still present in the current version?
