1) 64-bit guests need hardware-virtualzation enabled in the hosts bios.
2) when creating the 64-bit guest you must select 64-bit in General -> Basic -> version.
3) If running Windows as host you must make sure hyper-v or xp mode is not enabled on the host. MS does not play well and wants it all.

Hello, I'm working on win 7 and in the virtual machine I have mounted ubuntu server 14.04, this system is of 64 bits, but for the installation the EDX is necessary download the vagrant and the virtualbox on this system, but I not know if is possible activate this configuration in the virtual machine, already that the vagrant run la macchine that generate the fail.

Sorry but we don't support vagrant. They change too many things and use special scripts that are unknown to us making it too time consuming to diagnose.

vagrant support

But you must make sure that you have enabled hardware virtualization in the hosts BIOS or none of this will work.
