Sometimes latest versions of the software can cause issues when installed on older devices or devices running an older version of the operating system.
Software makers usually fix these issues but it can take them some time. What you can do in the meantime is to download and install an older version of VirtualBox 4.1.0 Build 75491.

What's new in this version:
- Support for cloning of VMs (bug #5853, see the manual for more information): full clones can be created through the GUI and VBoxManage, linked clones only through VBoxManage
- GUI: enhanced wizard for creating new virtual disks
- GUI: new wizard for copying virtual disks
- GUI: keep the aspect ratio in scale mode (Windows and OSX hosts only; bug #7822)
- VMM: raised the memory limit for 64-bit hosts to 1TB
- Experimental support for PCI passthrough for Linux hosts, see the manual for more information
- Windows guests: Experimental WDDM graphics driver, supporting Windows Aero (bug #4607) and providing Direct3D support using a cleaner approach (no need to install the guest drivers in Safe Mode anymore)
- Guest Additions: status of modules and features can now be queried separately by the frontends
- Networking: new network attachment mode "Generic Driver", which offers an open plugin architecture for arbitrary and separately distributable virtual network implementations
- Host-only Networking: fixed host crash in kernels prior to 2.6.29
- New Networking Mode UDP Tunnel: allows to interconnect VMs running on different hosts easily and transparently, see the manual for more information
- Experimental support for SATA hard disk hotplugging available with VBoxManage
- Solaris hosts: New Crossbow based bridged networking driver for Solaris 11 build 159 and above
In addition, the following items were fixed and/or added:

- GUI: added a View menu
- GUI: added a setting for the promiscuous mode policy for internal networks, bridged networks and host-only networks
- GUI: added slider for setting the CPU execution cap allowing to limit the amount of CPU time spent for the execution of the guest, see the manual for more information.
- GUI: the VM description is editable during the runtime of a VM (bug #1551)
- GUI: added proxy settings (bug #2870)
- GUI: made the number of SATA ports configurable
- GUI: decrease time before showing the VM configuration dialog
- VBoxManage: more convenient configuration of storage controller attachments by automatically determining the port or device parameter when a storage controller has only one port or device per port

- VBoxBalloonCtrl: new service for automatic dynamic adjustment of the balloon size for running VMs
- Settings: machine names and snapshot names are not allowed to be a valid UUID
- Settings: provide better diagnostics if a single medium is used twice in a VM configuration
- Settings: provide better diagnostics for errors in medium create/merge/clone operations, and fix memory leaks in error cases
- Storage: ATA/SATA drives can be marked as non-rotational, i.e. the guest OS will detect them as a SSD if supported, which can improve performance
- Storage: virtual CD/DVD images will be detached if the guest ejects the medium, unless the drive is marked to handle ejects only on a temporary basis
- Storage: the medium UUID can be changed again when attaching a medium for the first time, which allows using images which are exact duplicates including the UUID
- Storage: fixed possible data corruption under certain circumstances with VHD and Parallels images (bug #9150)
- Storage: fixed unnecessary expansion when cloning differential images in VDI format
- Storage: fixed detection code to handle empty files for VDI and VMDK format
