Sorry but what exactly is all a black screen? Your whole computer is a black screen or just your VM?

If its your VM then check /post your video settings.

Here are my settings to reference:

Sent you a PM earlier. Could not post for some reason (Mint forum issue?)

Looks like I got a PM from you but only thing I see is a pic of your settings. Did changing the video memory in the VM settings fix your problem?

While we are at it, Check your /var/log/syslog for any errors from VB. Post them here if you have any.
