• Your computer has encountered a problem and needs to restart - HAL_INITIALIZATION_FAILED

  I have Windows Workstation 10 and now I find I can't create virtual machines with Windows server 2012.  At the point where the VM load iso attached, I get the error - YOUR COMPUTER RAN INTO A PROBLEM AND a NEED OF RESTART - HAL_INITIALIZATION_FAILED - IN ITS COLLECTION ERROR INFORMATION AND will START: 0 SECONDS.

  I tried to download the latest version of Workstation 10.0.3 but I still have this problem.

  Anyone got any ideas?

  What type/model of CPU do you have in your host? Make sure that in the case of an Intel - "Virtualization technology (VT - X)" as "Execute Disable Bit (XD)" - are "enabled." In the case of an AMD processor, it's 'No Execute (NX)' which must be enabled. Make sure that you turn on the host after changing any of these settings in the BIOS, a simple reboot may not be enough.

  If this does not resolve the problem, please join the virtual machine vmware.log file to a response message.

  It is stated in "How to obtain the latest service pack XP" is.

  If you have problems obtaining the service pack from Windows Update, you can download the package of standalone update from the Download Center.

  This page will say that this installation package is intended for it professionals and developers. However, you can download this file safely.

  The following file is available for download from the Microsoft Download Center:

  Download the Windows XP Service Pack 3 package now

  FIRST: Uninstall IE8 and IE7 if they are installed. Back to all the way back to IE6. You want other patches before you get those. Reboot after doing this.

  You are not the first to ask questions about how to upgrade a clean Windows XP - not even installation in the last week. In fact, I will just cut and paste my answer here... here:

  Get SP2 (manually) and save it to your desktop. (There's a link here.) [You are a COMPUTER professional for now.]

  Install it.

  Then restart at least a couple of times for a few minutes between each restart.

  Get SP3 (manually) and save it to your desktop. (There's a link here.) [You are a COMPUTER professional for now.]

  Install it.

  Then restart at least a couple of times for a few minutes between each restart.

  Download at least Internet Explorer 7 (if it is not Internet Explorer 8).

  Install it.

  Reset.

  Now, try to get the updates through the normal web page (http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com/) and see how much more you can get (100 +) and keep checking until you no longer have.

  Back - let everyone know if it worked for you.
