Virtual machine sessions terminate unexpectedly. VM does not show any logs. So here is some of the returns from the program. The attached file contains all the info I have gathered along with the contents of the file dmesg.

Oracle Virtual Box
Version 5.1.18 r114002 (Qt5.5.1)

Host: Linux version 4.4.0-66-generic (buildd@lgw01-28) (gcc version 5.4.0 20160609 (Ubuntu 5.4.0-6ubuntu1~16.04.4) ) #87-Ubuntu SMP Fri Mar 3 15:29:05 UTC 2017 (Ubuntu 4.4.0-66.87-generic 4.4.44)

Results when starting a virtual machine:

Failed to open a session for the virtual machine Plaything.
The virtual machine 'Plaything' has terminated unexpectedly during startup with exit code 1 (0x1).
Result Code:

Kernel driver not installed (rc=-1908)

The VirtualBox Linux kernel driver (vboxdrv) is either not loaded or there is a permission problem with /dev/vboxdrv. Please reinstall the kernel module by executing

'/sbin/vboxconfig'

as root.

Subsequent information in the file attachment.

Problem solved. UEFI boot is the cause of my problem. See this webpage for more details and a resolution: http://askubuntu.com/questions/760671/c ... keep-secur.
