How to solve problems with the installation of Virtual-Box?

I installed Virtual-Box in Ubuntu 18.04 from the "ubuntu software" store
My laptop is an Asus, 8GB RAM and for now it works well.
I am trying to install Kaly Linux in Virtual-Box with the following configuration:
4 GB RAM, 16 GB hard drive. And the partitions created a swap of 512 MG, and the rest I leave it for root.
When the installation starts, the laptop is completely blocked, it freezes and I need to turn off the button, to restart it again.
This has happened to me the 4 times I've tried this morning, in the afternoon I'm trying to find a question here like mine, without success.
Any idea why this happens?
Would it be better to install from the terminal to avoid errors?
The image I downloaded from Kaly was the one I showed in the capture.
Thank you

Do you have enabled virtualization in your BIOS settings? If not try doing that.
Intel page about how to do this
Some time ago I had similar issue and it solved it.
I will study your advice @Tomek Piechocki, but I was running kaly on this same laptop when it was windows, Thank you.

Just check to be sure. It's just one of many possibilites, but it's general for every virtual machine. Good luck
