Windows 7 Aero disabling all the time

I installed a Windows 7 guest with Direct3D and everything. Vbox tools installed properly.

Aero keeps switching off, as if the video driver crashes... Only it doesn't (it doesn't display that "video driver stopped working" balloon).
All I have to do is restart the Desktop Window Manager and Aero is enabled again... Only to have it switch off on me a few minutes later.

Can this be fixed? Feel free to ask for more info, whichever is needed.

Using Virtualbox 4.3.6 on Windows 7 x64.
