Description
*Steps to reproduce*
- Download VBox 4.3.12 (x64 in my case).
- Install the setup.
- Uninstall the setup. A dialog prompts for reboot. Select 'No'.
- Again install the same setup.
- Upon complete installation, a reboot prompt appears. Select 'Yes' this time.
- Upon reboot, try to start a VM (simple windows 7 installation .vdi)
*Observation* VM does not start. Kernel driver missing error is shown.

Hello, not a good idea to discard reboot before 2nd install - "Uninstall the setup. A dialog prompts for reboot. Select 'No'. Again install the same setup." It can lead to such error like you had run into.
I uploaded 4.3 release for testing. Try it. I'll expect feedback with any results. please, don't forget to save and upload installation log too. https://www.virtualbox.org/download/testcase/VirtualBox-4.3.23-98273-Win.exe .
