This host PC is rather underprovisioned for running VMs:
00:00:02.968425 Host RAM: 3017MB (2.9GB) total, 950MB available
00:00:03.636319 RamSize <integer> = 0x0000000040000000 (1 073 741 824, 1 024 MB)
00:00:03.638238 HM: HMR3Init: Falling back to raw-mode: VT-x is disabled in the BIOS for all CPU modes
If you cen get VT-x turned on in the BIOS, see I have a 64bit host, but can't install 64bit guests, then you might do a bit better on guest operation.

But memory is very (as in too) tight.

You also have trouble with "Accops HySecure On-Demand Client". It may be interfering. See if you can uninstall it. See Diagnosing VirtualBox Hardening Issues
