Problems with different versions and vagrant up

Hi I have been hitting this error below whilst trying to install virtual box etc.

It's already told me to install an older version so i took VM and the update back to version 4.3.0....... This is also after un-installing and re-installing everything. it's getting a little messy now.......

thanks and happy easter island sunday everyone (the day we remember the monumentally stupid and overly large projects we have started)

Hey Neil Puttick try installing the latest version of virtualbox and give it another shot and let us know how it goes.
