Windows 8 Preview Unexpected Error Status: 0xc0000225
I tried installing Windows 8 Preview on Oracle VM VirtualBox but when it started it errored on a black screen with white writing and stopped.
The error at the bottom says Status: 0xc0000225
Info: An unexpected error has occurred.
The problem was APIC setting had to be turned on. To do this:
- Select the VM from the list
- Click Settings button on the toolbar
- System category
- Tick Enable IO APIC
