You probably have hit a known problem with 4.3.14 which is still being addressed - it can conflict with anti-virus on Windows hosts.

The best solution for a noobie is probably to download the previous release - 4.3.12 - and install that. Remember to revert extension pack and Guest Additions also, if you already installed the 4.3.14 versions.
