Attempting to install Debian 7 Guest on Windows host

I have several other VMs on a Windows 7 64bit VB host, which all work fine. I'm attempting to install a Debian 7 guest. The moment the VM starts to boot, from the Debian 7 install iso, I get a "VirtualBox guru meditation - A critical error has occurred while running the vm and the machine execution has been stopped"
I've followed the further instructions and checked the Vbox.log, and I do see some kind of an access_denied error at the very end of the log..

Code: Select all

D:\ISO\Debian 7\debian-7.4.0-ia64-DVD-1.iso
You downloaded the wrong install file.

Thanks for pointing that out.. Getting the correct DVDs now..
