Quite obviously that screen is black, not blue. Had it been Win2K3 it would indeed have been blue. This fact tells me this is not Win2k3.

The issue will most likely be resolved by starting again, and choosing the correct guest OS template (the Windows 8.1 template will probably work).

Where did this VDI image come from? When moving a VirtualBox VM to a new host you should move the entire folder, not just one file. Just as when you travel about you take your whole laptop, not just the hard disk.
