VirtualBox stuck on Windows Logo

virtualbox linux-mint

Try disabling paravirtualization:

Settings -> System -> Acceleration -> Paravirtualization Interface: None

I was able to start installation of Windows 10 (64bit) on VirtualBox 5.0 Ubuntu by disabling this feature.


I removed VirtualBox 5.0 and installed the Oracle VirtualBox 5.1 and it went through. No other options helped.


I ran into the same problem, and changing paravirtualisation did not help. I had also installed the virtualbox-ext-pack package (Ubuntu host) and enabled USB3.

Unchecking the following allowed me to install: Settings > USB > Enable USB Controller
