vagrant up timeout

I have a compaq presario CQ60 notebook that doesn't support virtualization (or at least it doesn't allow me to enable/disable in the bios screen).

I follow the directions in the tutorial successfully installing the latest virtualbox and vagrant. But, when doing the "vagrant up" command inside the gwsd-vagrant folder I downloaded in the zip it fails.

First, a virtualbox gui window pops up and it has me select which ubuntu to boot with. I choose one and then the screen goes black and my cmd just says:

default: Error: Connection timeout. Retrying...

How do I solve this?

figured it out, my prob was the same as this one: http://gettingstartedwithdjango.com/questions/1/issues-with-32-bit-host-running-64-bit-guest/

in Vagrantfile of the downloaded zip change the following:

config.vm.box = "precise32" config.vm.box_url = "http://files.vagrantup.com/precise32.box"

and then add the following:

config.vm.provision :shell, :inline => "sudo aptitude -y install build-essential"

right before this line that already should exist: config.vm.provision :shell, :inline => "gem install --no-ri --no-rdoc chef"
