Did you try to reboot?
Also, were there any changes in the software, including, but not limited to, Microsoft updates, virus signatures/engine updates, etc?

By reading carefully the error messages. They have instructions.

I was more interested in the second error message, where it says:
More details may be available in 'C:\Users\fabia\VirtualBox VMs\windows\Windows XP\Logs\VBoxHardening.log'.
Find that file. ZIP it. Attach it to your response.
