VB Critical Error on first start

Post by albazilla »

Hello,

I'm new to VB and just installed for the first time on a MacBook, OS X Leopard. The VB is version 3.6.1 rel. 59351.
As I start the VirtualBox app, I get the following message:

Failed to initialize COM or to find the VirtualBox COM server. Most likely, the VirtualBox server is not running or failed to start.
The application will now terminate.
Details -> Callee RC: NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005)

I've been browsing the FAQ and the forum, the only suggestion I could find was to re-install. I did so, even un-installed, re-downloaded and re-installed.
Still now joy.

Somebody can help?
Cheers.
