Reindl Harald,

Problem solved. It was a Hardware problem.
I changed the Hard Drive, restored the back-up and all is working right.

Sorry for the noise.

Reindl Harald,

I did exactly this.

I updated from Fedora14-x86_64 to Fedora16-x86_64 host, and I thought VirtualBox-4.0 was ok. When I started
Winvista64 Guest I got the message:

BOOTMGR is compressed Press Ctrl-Alt-Del to restart

I did it, and the Winvista64 boot started again and stoped at the same point. In a loop. I thought that the problem
was VirtualBox for Fedora14. I removed it. So I installed Virtualbox-4.1-4.1.6 for Fedora16-x86_64. The same thing
is happening. Why bootmgr has changed? Anybody helps? The guest machine was working untouched in a "Production"
more than a year. I only updated from Fedora14 to Fedora16.

I got from VirtualBox forum: "we don't really support (fully) the distro branches of VirtualBox".

Would you please help to solve this problem.
sorry i am a vmware-user since years and had virtualbox only
for some months on my notebook - but since we are using vmware
ESX in our company for the whole production-environment i
have no use for other virtualization-software and can not help
you here

maybe i can partially help:
my expierience with virtualbox migrationto another host was that
winxp did not start some times ago because the default-hardware
of the vm has changed for whatever reason and after figure out
the exactly settings from before it was solved

primary a windows problem but on the other hand a reason more
that i do not like vbox - configurations are seperated from
virtual machines - with vmware you have the folder with your
guest and it contains ALL including config (.vmx) and bios-settings
(.nvram) and it does not upgrade/change virtual-hardware in any
way without user-confirmation
