NtCreateFile(\Device\VBoxDrvStub) failed: 0xc000000034

I'm, trying to start up an image on another computer, getting this error:
NtCreateFile(\Device\VBoxDrvStub) failed: 0xc000000034
STATUS_OBJECT_NAME_NOT_FOUND (0 retries)

Driver is probably stuck stopping/starting. Try 'sc.exe query vboxdrv' to get more information about its state. Rebooting may actually help. (rc=-101)

Make sure the kernel module has been loaded successfully.
Computer is Windows 7 (64-bit), Vbox is 4.3.24
The image worked just fine when running on the other computer

When I run sc.exe query vboxdrv I get :
> sc.exe query vboxdrv

SERVICE_NAME: vboxdrv
        TYPE               : 1  KERNEL_DRIVER
        STATE              : 4  RUNNING
                                (STOPPABLE, NOT_PAUSABLE, IGNORES_SHUTDOWN)
        WIN32_EXIT_CODE    : 0  (0x0)
        SERVICE_EXIT_CODE  : 0  (0x0)
        CHECKPOINT         : 0x0
        WAIT_HINT          : 0x0

So this is happening after a reboot?

Same issue with me - just downloaded and installed the 4.3.24 version - running on a Win 7 machine, Ubuntu 14.10 virtual machine.

I've attached my log file. I ran the sc.exe command and I see this:
SERVICE_NAME: vboxdrv
        TYPE               : 1  KERNEL_DRIVER
        STATE              : 1  STOPPED
        WIN32_EXIT_CODE    : 2  (0x2)
        SERVICE_EXIT_CODE  : 0  (0x0)
        CHECKPOINT         : 0x0
        WAIT_HINT          : 0x0
I have rebooted several times, with the same results.

Okay - got it working.
Here's what I did.

Went to the C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox\drivers\vboxdrv directory, right clicked on VBoxDrv.inf and selected Install. I then went back to my console and typed 'sc start vboxdrv' and got this:
SERVICE_NAME: vboxdrv
        TYPE               : 1  KERNEL_DRIVER
        STATE              : 4  RUNNING
                                (STOPPABLE, NOT_PAUSABLE, IGNORES_SHUTDOWN)
        WIN32_EXIT_CODE    : 0  (0x0)
        SERVICE_EXIT_CODE  : 0  (0x0)
        CHECKPOINT         : 0x0
        WAIT_HINT          : 0x0
        PID                : 0
        FLAGS              :
Went back to VirtualBox and was able to start the Ubuntu virtual machine.

Had the same issue on upgrading to 5.0.8. The method above worked nicely, thanks!
