Read http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Migrate_Windows ? Windows is just so incredibly picky about the hardware it expects for booting successfully. I suspect you have trouble with the IO-APIC being disabled (default for VirtualBox) - that just causes a hang for Windows installs which were made with IO-APIC enabled.
