Due to inappropriate comments and videos shared on this thread I will not be updating this from here forward.. I will either create a spot on my personal website http://www.lorentedford.com or on the webpage for the new BHD server i am working on website which is bhd.Ltcraft.net

Sorry for the Inconvenience Best wishes to all!

Hi name here is Loren and I have a Server 2008 R2 vps and would like to host BHD on it.. This server is actually being hosted via KVM and has Generic Graphics card drivers.. Any ideas on how to get this thing to pass the resolution test so i can just host the game??

to view the latest information: bhd.Ltcraft.net

Ok I am updating this intial post for a couple of reason first reason is the problem is still not resolved as of 12/16/2014 at 1:15am Central Standard Time.. Below is todays update on the server situation..


Ok just wanted to update everyone on progress so far we have learned that in a Virtual environment it is near to impossible to put Virtualbox inside of KVM virtualization.. I actually got pretty far but got hung up.. Here is the information that i have posted for help on below.... The server is a 4 core with 4 gb of memory running debian however it is in a kvm environment.. I ditched the windows host because of no ability to emulate the 3d graphics for the server side hosting... With Virtual box however i am fully able to use 3d graphics after the installation of Wined3d it can be found here:  http://www.nongnu.org/wined3d/

However in windows server 2008 with the way some of the permissions where it was trying to view this as hyper-v type emulator etc.. Meaning Microsoft wanted me to pay for a Remote Desktop Virtualization key to run the application that requires 3d graphics..

So.. Here below is the information i have gather so far i will continue to try and shake the bugs out and find away to do this.. Another user up there had commands please send them they look promising..

Hi name here is Loren I am trying to host a very old game and it requires Windows to run name of the game is called Black Hawk down and we were able to successfully get it to run here at the house with Virtual Box however after uploading the vbox Vdi files etc.. We have been running into an issue with Kernal Headers...

root@(none):/home/loren# VBoxHeadless --startvm "Windows Xp Media Center(copy)"
WARNING: The vboxdrv kernel module is not loaded. Either there is no module
available for the current kernel (3.2.0-4-amd64) or it failed to

sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup

You will not be able to start VMs until this problem is fixed.
VBoxHeadless: supR3HardenedVerifyDir: Cannot trust the directory "/usr/lib/virtualbox": group and/or other writable (st_mode=040777)

so took a look to make sure my headers where correct..

root@(none):/home/loren# uname -a
Linux (none) 3.2.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.2.63-2+deb7u2 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Any suggestions on how to fix this or get around this just to host my little windows box for my personal game server?
