The easiest way to access the drive is as a shared folder. If you insist on grabbing it with the USB API then make sure the extension pack is installed on the host (extension pack, not Guest Additions).

If you need to continue this conversation then provide a VM log file. With the VM fully shut down, right click and "Show Log" in the GUI, save "VBox.log" (ONLY) to a zip, and attach the zip here.
