Update: Die Version 3.0.10 wurde kurz nach der Veröffentlichung wieder zurückgezogen. Folgendes Statement wurde veröffentlicht:
The 3.0.10 binaries that briefly appeared on the web site suffer from a last minute regression that breaks software virtualization (not VT-x nor AMD-V). We've removed all the files and are preparing a new build. Please downgrade to 3.0.8 or wait till the end of the day for the new version.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Wir melden natürlich, wenn es eine überarbeitete Version gibt.
