Virtualbox won't start any OS

When using virtualbox, I select an OS and click start. It starts to open but then closes instantly and says "aborted". Whats wrong? What do I do?

Ok I found it. Have the log file attached.

Ok, according to the log file, you are trying to give 400MB RAM to the guest but your system only has 311MB free.

Also, please update your profile to indicate that your Primary OS is OSX as opposed to Windows 7 which you currently have listed.

Hmm, that's odd because I have 2 GB of RAM on my computer and I just restarted... Ok, I will try again. Thank you for your help!

Ok, this is odd. I just tried with over 900 MB of RAM free and it STILL doesn't work.... Posting the log file again...

Anyone know why this is? Should I re-install virtualbox? Give Ubuntu less RAM? Anyone?
