The issue you are having here looks almost identical to one I experienced with vbox months back. Turned out (after many hours of long distance with Asus engineering) that the board I was using had a BIOS issue. AMD-V was "enabled" in the bios but would only work with the built in IGP. If a add in card was used it would disable the amd-v support but still say it was enabled in the bios settings. A BIOS update corrected it once the issue was found.

What I meant was, it would be cool if SUn submitted patches back to WINE, so the fixes that Sun makes doesn't end only in Virtual Box.
It would certainly be nice though if they would free some of their developers to work with us to improve WineD3D. It would help both Wine and VirtualBox a lot.Last edited by Thunderbird; 26 June 2009, 05:01 AM.

Its 100% an Bug in VirtualBox. I have say the Problem exsist since VirtualBox 2.2.X and only Windows guests are broken. About Software fallback this is only for 32bit Guests aviable and not for 64bit but my Linux 64bit guests works fine. About the Tool by AMD it say its enable and the Tool from Vmware say its enable and working. In the past all Windows 64bit are woking but after updating to VirtualBox 2.2.X they broken.
I know my english is horibile but i hope now its clear

It will fall back to software emulation (more accurately fall back to binary translation) upon a AMD-V failure. If you want to check to see if it is a BIOS issue or not and you have 64-bit windows installed try running the AMD Hyper-V ready test. It will accurately tell you if your system has a fully functional AMD-V bios or not.

The libraries make use of all the wined3d to wgl porting I did and have done nothing special themselves except for bundling the dlls.
