Yes, I too faced this error! I was using Seed Ubuntu Machines 12.04 and 16.04. My both machines showed this error. I got it resolved by following steps:

1. Change the processor count to 2(if 1).
2. Enable I/O APIC in motherboard settings.

Note: If invalid settings shown below, check and resolve accordingly.

Hope it helps.
