OSX guests are only supported on Apple hardware
(which you do not have). See:
Important notice regarding Mac OS X as Guest and ch.
3.1.1 Mac OS X Guests of the User Manual.
Mac OS X is commercial, licensed software and contains both license and technical restrictions that limit its use to certain hardware and usage scenarios. You must understand and comply with these restrictions.
In particular, Apple prohibits the installation of most versions of Mac OS X on non-Apple hardware.
These license restrictions are also enforced on a technical level. Mac OS X verifies that it is running on Apple hardware. Most DVDs that accompany Apple hardware check for the exact model. These restrictions are not circumvented by Oracle VM VirtualBox and continue to apply.

Try to sell it. It's useless for your computer. You shouldn't have bought it in the first place, it's meant only for Apple hardware.
