Downgrading to 3.0.8 & createrawvmdk command

I have been struggling trying to get my bootcamp partition to work on VB, where I keep getting the BSOD when trying to boot Windows 7 (http://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic. ... 6&start=45). Have tried a tonnes of suggestions, nothing seems to work.

Anyway after suggestion from another thread, I decided to downgrading VB from version 3.2.8 to 3.0.8 and no surprise, it just gives me more issues.
When running the "sudo vboxmanage internalcommands createrawvmdk...." command on the 3.0.8 version, this is what i get:

mycomputer:~ admin$ sudo vboxmanage internalcommands createrawvmdk -rawdisk /dev/disk0 -filename winseven.vmdk -partitions 3

ERROR: failed to create the VirtualBox object!
ERROR: Could not load the settings file '/var/root/Library/VirtualBox/VirtualBox.xml'.

Cannot convert settings from version '1.10-macosx'.
The source version is not supported
Details: code VBOX_E_XML_ERROR (0x80bb000a), component VirtualBox, interface IVirtualBox, callee <NULL>



It seems as though the previous latest version ( 3.2.8 ) was not uninstalled properly or something related. Not sure.
Can someone help me out here please? Thanks in advance.
