Can't use VirtualBox to boot linux kali

I am trying to create a VM with linux kali in it with no success, what i've done so far:

• tried live-boot
• installed first and tried booting second

the scenario:

• Main OS Windows 8 x64
• VirtualBox 4.3.6
• kali-linux-1.0.6-i386

the problem:

when booting, moments after this line appears:

starting gnome display manager gdm-3

my screen turns black and shows the loading cursor, after a while it passes to the arrow cursor with the screen remaining black. And it just stays like this.. I followed all the steps in:

http://docs.kali.org/installation/ka...d-disk-install

This gets me frustrated because everytime I tried to install any OS in a virtualization SW i can never get it to work straight. Has this ever happened to you ?

thanks in advance.

the same thing happened to me any solution
it take avery long time to install on virtualbox but after finally finished installation it does not complete boot
any suggestions .
