[ale] Bluescreen on Windows Client thru VirtualBox

[James Sumners]

It sounds like you moved from i386 to x86_64. Since VirtualBox has to
supply Windows with the drivers it needs, there could be a driver you
are using that doesn't work well in x86_64 form. But without specific
error messages that is just a guess.
