VirtualBox won't Launch

My vbox doesn't want to work anymore. My system is up to date now, and I just ran:

sudo vbox_build_module

and it ends with no errors. But when I launch from my Xfce menu, nothing happens. So I tried from CLI:

[kirk@localhost ~]$ VBoxManage startvm Vista
Sun VirtualBox Command Line Management Interface Version 3.1.6
(C) 2005-2010 Sun Microsystems, Inc.
All rights reserved.

Waiting for the remote session to open...
ERROR: Virtual machine 'Vista' has terminated unexpectedly during startup
Details: code NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005), component Machine, interface IMachine, callee <NULL>

Any ideas what might be the problem here?

Thanks.

Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.

Wow. I didn't even know I was supposed to upgrade yaourt packages. I thought somehow pacman did that.

Some of mine aren't even IN aur anymore.

Anyhow, that did it. Thank you very much!
