Preparing a VM. Followed carefully, all the instructions for registry and vboxmanage. Still got a problem in dxdiag. Display tab: Chip type: “Virtualbox VESA BIOS”
Anyone know how to fix that? Thanks for any advice.
@UlricvonBek#105191 Scammers rarely check dxdiag, but it can be changed via a Registry edit. I would search for each occurrence of “Virtualbox VESA BIOS” as you may have to edit more than one Reg key.
It’s not in the registry - I think it is coming from VirtualBox itself so it should be a vboxmanage parameter. Not mentioned anywhere in the documentation though. Just wondered if anyone else has solved it?
oh, god, dxdiag. alright, kid. You got 2 optns.
optn 1: spend a million hours trying to find it like I did, only to fail miserably
optn 2a: replace dxdiag with a meme program like I have in my primary vm.

optn 2b: use drek’s fake dxdiag and fill out the xml with your desired system specs.

you wanna go give yourself perms in System32, then rename dxdiag to old.dxdiag, then import your new dxdiag make sure it's named exactly that.
While you're at it, people tend to forget the bios edits. The little random secondary admin prompt from gotoassist is scammers checking if your bios ver is VBOX - 1 or not. Run this after boot, either manually, or with a task, and they won't suspect a thing.

@UlricvonBek#105208 It reverts back to “Virtualbox VESA BIOS” and “Oracle Corporation”(DAC Type) after each and every reboot. So you have to save a snapshot or create *.reg file that runs on startup to change it or change it manually after each reboot.
I would change both keys for each of these:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\Class</s>{4d36e968-e325-11ce-bfc1-08002be10318}\0000
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\Class</s>{4d36e97d-e325-11ce-bfc1-08002be10318}\0030
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\Video</s>{C619A1B3-B3BB-4932-A2D9-DF5FA8A97175}\0000
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class</s>{4d36e968-e325-11ce-bfc1-08002be10318}\0000
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class</s>{4d36e97d-e325-11ce-bfc1-08002be10318}\0030
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Video</s>{C619A1B3-B3BB-4932-A2D9-DF5FA8A97175}\0000
@AussieScamBuster#105222 Thank you very much for that. I’ll give it a whirl and see what happens. A reg file I can run isn’t too much of a problem.
