      Hold on. Lets back up here. Is virtualization enabled in the bios/uefi for the CPU? That could be part of your problem.

      Yes. I encountered that problem a while ago and got it fixed

      Are you giving enough CPU & RAM to the VM?

      how would i check that?

      is this what you meant?

      Thats the one.

      Does this look right to you ?

              yep, 1 GB should be fine for a ubuntu startup session.

                Good as far as I can tell. How about storage?

                      Select "Unifi Controller-2.vdi". How much storage does that drive have?

                            The issue isn't with the vbox vm it's self, during the final phase of installation the VM would just hang, repeatedly. We went through the install twice.

                            Each time at the same point it just hung. He has another VM there called Unifi Control that was up and running, but acting weird as well.

                              Then it sounds like an issue with either VBox or the bottom OS (Win10). Experiencing any other weird issues? Otherwise, I'd try the Hyper-V as suggested and go from there.

                                Apparently i dont have enough space for a fedora dual boot.. @JaredBusch do you have a walkthrough on how to use hyper-v?

                                You just "install the Hyper-V role" under roles.

                                He couldn't open device manager, he doesn't have access to install roles.

                                Roles are not under device manager.

                                oh ffs. . . are you on your literal high horse today? . . .

                                This has nothing to do with being literal or not.

                                You were telling him to look in the wrong f***ing place.

                                Even Caramel (Jared's horse) knew where to look!

                                I sure did. I rock on Hyper-V.

                                We now have animals fluent in English as well as technical lingo on ML? Awesome. Welcome @caramel!

                                      even though this is a new install of Windows 10 (over a month old now), it's easy to mess it up.

                                      I'd start by uninstalling Virtual box, reboot and reinstall then try making your VM's again.

                                        Easily it's just a compatibility problem with drivers.

                                          So there are three things that can crash here and it is not always clear which is doing what. But is Windows, VirtualBox or Ubuntu the thing that is stopping?

                                            Then it sounds like an issue with either VBox or the bottom OS (Win10). Experiencing any other weird issues? Otherwise, I'd try the Hyper-V as suggested and go from there.

                                            nothing weird other than VBox not wanting to finish the isntall

                                            So there are three things that can crash here and it is not always clear which is doing what. But is Windows, VirtualBox or Ubuntu the thing that is stopping?

                                            I think its VirtualBox. might be ubuntu.
