99% of the time The first option is selected by VirtualBox in under 3 seconds, the other 1% it pauses for me to actually choose. No matter the option I choose, the next screen will be a black screen with an unblinking prompt and that's it.

Additionally, VirtualBox is being initiated via a vagrant up on Windows 7 via a cygwin commandline.

I'd appreciate as many ideas as possible, random spitballs are also welcome!

Found out what the problem was. As embarrassing as it may sound, simply enabling Hardware Virtualization from the BIOS solved the problem
