Start the VM from full normal shutdown, not save-state. Run until you see the problem happen, then shut down the VM from within the VM's OS if possible. If not possible, close the Virtualbox window for the VM with the Power Off option set.
Right-click the VM in the main Virtualbox window's VM list, choose Show in Explorer/Finder/File Manager. In the "Logs" subfolder, zip the VM's "vbox.log", and post the zip file, using the forum's Upload Attachment tab.

I don't immediately see a problem, but I see you are still on 7.0.0. I would definitely recommend trying 7.0.2.
Btw, I have no idea what "Blue VM" means. Apparantly you downloaded Vista from somewhere: note that if this isn't a genuine Microsoft download then we have no reason to expect that it should work.
