So say you wanted to give a VM 4GB of normal RAM and told it to use 1GB of RAM to the GPU and would in turn only expect it to use just over a total of about 5GB (with slightly more overhead).it would instead be using 8GB (with slightly more overhead)! Though between 3-4 GB of this only shows up as "Shared Commit" or "System Commit" in Process Explorer and "Commited" in Task Manager It seems that regardless of what limit you place on 'Graphics Memory' for each VM the new mksSandbox.exe process will still commit 4GB. It's under Virtual Machine Settings > Hardware > Display

To start with I'd suggest you try disabling "Accelerate 3D graphics" for the two VMs you ran into this issue with and see if it still happens after you power them on.
