Have a read of I have a 64bit host, but can't install 64bit guests and see if that guides you to the cause of your particular problem.

If not, then we will need more information either if it is given in the error message or from a VBox.log file. If you have to, create a 32bit guest and let it boot to the "No bootable medium" error. Shut it down and post the VBox.log file (zipped of course).
