"re Hanging at the hackintosh screen. I have an Intel i7, 8 GB, windows 8.1 and had the same problem. I fixed it by creating the VM, then a) closing Virtual Box b) running Command Prompt (as Administrator) c) running the VBoxManage modifyvm OSX_10.10 --cpuidset command d) restarting VirtualBox Looks like the commandline (VBoxManager) and the GUI don't play together well :) hth" - martin english
