I think I had the CONFIG flags set to Y already. The BIOS change and a shut down before booting was what apparently solved it. I shutdown the laptop and went to bed, the next morning after booting the machine I fired up vbox and all worked. I have now a fully functional Windows7 virtual machine; it is impressive how fast it boots and shuts down as virtual machine; also everything seems to work robustly. I installed goggle scketch up under Win7 and it works nicely. Thanks for the inputs.
I've read a couple of threads about losing 64bit VM support after a machine goes to sleep. Rebooting fixes the problem temporarily. If you notice that behavior you may want to go ahead with any BIOS upgrade to see if that fixes it.
