I'd try reinstalling virtualbox. Then I'd make sure that you adjust the vm with enough ram, videocard memory, etc. It should work fine. I run the same setup all the time, and I don't believe that this is a 'known issue'.

Hello Friends,

I am a newcomer to freesurfer and wanted to use it in windows. I
downloaded as instructed the

freesurfer-Virtualbox-linux-x86-stable-pub-v5.1.0-full.vdi-for windows

the virtual box version is 4.1.6

and installed with the required settings as mentioned in your website. I
tried it in two systems one with
a windows xp, 4 GB RAM, Intel Core Quad CPU, 2,40 GhZ, 64 bit system
and the other system Windows 7, Intel Xeon 2.53 Ghz(2 processors), 24 Gb
RAM, 64 bit system

In both the sytems i was able to configure the virtual box for the xubuntu
linux but it starts and progress bar in the middle and then the
application closes without any errors. Is this a known problem? Am i
missing something?

Thanking you
