When this option is enabled, a virtual CDDVD disk image (ISO) is not removed from the virtual CDDVD drive when the eject command is sent from the guest operating system. In this case, it is necessary to choose a virtual optical disk ISO file, or select the host optical drive with a physical optical CD or DVD disc inserted. On the screenshot below, you can see that the optical drive of the VM is empty.
In the list of the storage devices, check to see whether the boot optical disc or a boot disk image (ISO) is inserted into a physical or virtual optical drive attached to your VM. More specifically, the algorithm of checking the bootable media for your VM is as follows. Insert the appropriate bootable media into a virtual CDDVD drive of the VM and reset (restart) the virtual machine. If you have another disc that is the same, or you are able to record another copy of the disc try these options. Try to clean the disc surface carefully, polishing the scratches with special sprays. This situation can be terrible if scratches are located near the center of the optical disc where the table of content and the lead-in area that includes information about disc tracks and sectors of the CDDVD disc is recorded. Scratches and dirt on optical CDDVD discs can make the disc data unreadable. Unfortunately, in most cases it is impossible to repair a corrupted ISO file stored on the damaged HDD. Windows Vista In Virtualbox Download Another ISOĭownload another ISO installation image, clone a physical DVD disk to the ISO image, or create a new ISO bootable image manually.įor example, manual creation of the bootable macOS installation ISO image is explained in the blog post about installing macOS on VMware ESXi. If some fragments of the ISO disk image are located on bad (damaged) blocks of the HDD (hard disk drive), the ISO file can become unreadable and a VM will not be able to boot from this ISO file. Verify the checksum of your file after downloading the ISO image by comparing with the reference checksum on the source site. Sometimes it may happen that the wrong disc is inserted unintentionally. The same situation may happen when an ISO image is created incorrectly without creating a disk boot area.īurn another bootable CDDVD disc or create a bootable ISO disk image correctly and try to boot again.Ĭheck the media you have inserted into the optical drive attached to the VM. The No bootable medium found in VirtualBox error is common when creating a new VM.
