Booting a VirtualBox to Acronis 11.5 PE disc

Thread needs solution

I have VirtualBox version 4.2.12r84980 installed and Acronis Backup and Recovery 11.5.32266
I created bootable media inside acronis using the WinPE option. This bootable media works on my laptop and various other computers.

When i try to boot a virtual machine off of the same CD I get a single error window from the Acronis plugin with the following errors:

Cannot connect to 'localhost' I have attached 2 images with the error message details

The last command that is run from the command prompt before the error comes up is:"x:\program files\acronis\backupadnrecovery\trueimage_starter.exe"
