Welcome to the forums.
However, instead of starting your own topic or finding something relevant, you replied to a thread that was on the "Linux Guests" section. You have a Windows host with a Windows guest. Not the same thing....
Don't worry, I moved it to the Windows Guests section.

Can you right-click on the VM in the VirtualBox Manager, select "Show Log...", save only the first log, ZIP IT and attach it to your reply.

Yes, that certainly looks like the error you get without hardware virtualization for a Windows 8/10 vm.

If your machine is old enough to be running Vista there is a good chance your machine does not support hardware virtualization.

The Pentium T4200 doesn't have VT-x. You cannot run Windows guests newer than Windows 7.
