I found that the VMWARE ESXI Guest (Windows 7) running Virtualbox have some problem.
1. Can not use Multicore.
2. Fail to access USB error.
Anyway to solve this problem.

Re: VMWARE ESXI Guest running Virtualbox
For a guest to have access to multiple cores and USB you just enable those features in the VM. That kind of information can be found in the user manual, chapter 3, "Configuring Virtual Machines".
Note that porting a VMWare VM, particularly an ESXi VM, is not always easy. As it's Win7 you'll also encounter activation issues.

Re: VMWARE ESXI Guest running Virtualbox
I never actually assign multiple cores to a VM (I don't see the point), however I believe you must enable IO-APIC before it can be done.
On the USB question - the error message tells you what's wrong! It looks like you didn't install the extension pack (on the host).
If you need to continue this discussion then please post a VM log file. See Minimum information needed for assistance.
