CentOS Won't Properly Start

Hello,
It seems like with the newer version of VirtualBox with the GAs, CentOS for me is failing to start with the GAs after updating CentOS along with sometimes while installing the GAs to CentOS ends up with a distorted guest screen. The main things CentOS has been doing for me is either just have a completely blank guest screen or the boot process freezes since for some reason after installing GAs, then results in CentOS to be unable to find the SELinux policy. Any help would be appreciated.

You didn't mention your host complete and exact version, build and details.
You didn't mention your guest complete and exact version, build and details.

You want to try again?

You want to try again at getting that information the right way? (Hint: ask questions instead of being rude and putting things in bold which I take as more offensive than anything.)

Seriously now? Are you kidding me? Is
bold your offensive limit? What if I had asked you to
ZIP a file
(because that's how I format it; red, bold, and undelined)? You would sue me? I highlight the details I want to see filled, and you call me "
rude" and "
offensive"? And on top of that, you report/flag my answer with the following?

You
seriously need to calibrate your offensive-meter and your insult sensitivity. Seriously now. And no, that is not offensive/insulting, that's reality staring at you!
I will not give you a warning for abusing the report system, this time...
But I
will close this thread as a duplicate of "
VirtualBox 5.2.0 with 5.2.1 Guest Additions still doesn't work right", because 1) you're having this issue for a long time now and this thread is a repost, and 2) in the other thread you had at least the courtesy of providing some vital information to those that might try to help you.
Keep in mind that according to the forum rules,
duplicate posts are not allowed. It's not good etiquette...
