Public bug reported: I'm using Ubuntu Trusty. Under VirtualBox 4.3.10_Ubuntu R93012, my other OSs (e.g. Debian, openSuse) startup OK. However, Windows XP (my only Windows OS) starts up OK but then displays a window with details of NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005).
I've checked vboxusers group and it contains my user id. Screenshot of error window attached.
