I didn't choose Vista (or any OS) when I created the vm. I deleted what I had and chose Vista and it worked.

"I succeeded after I enabled hardware visualization support. Here's how:

Make sure your motherboard and CPU both support Intel VT-x or AMD-V virtualization technology.
Go to your BIOS and enable VT-x/AMD-V virtualization. On my Lenovo Thinkpad, this was in the Config > CPU section.
Power off and reboot

After doing this, I successfully installed Windows 7 as a guest OS in Fedora 16."

The resolution was to set all Storage items to use the SATA controller under

Settings > Storage"
