So I recently decided to learn how to use Virtualbox, I am loving learning it, I have ran into few problems but this one seems to stump me
I am running Windows 10 btw
I just installed Windows on the machine, updated my drivers, downloaded java (even though that shouldnt be needed), than installed minecraft, after clicking 'Play' I get this error and I cant figure out why.

A detailed walkthrough of the error, its code path and all known details is as follows:
OpenGL: ~~ERROR~~ RuntimeException: No OpenGL context found in the current thread.
GL Caps:
Using VBOs: No
Is Modded: Probably not. Jar signature remains and client brand is untouched.
Type: Client (map_client.txt)
Resource Packs:
Current Language: ~~ERROR~~ NullPointerException: null
Profiler Position: N/A (disabled)
CPU: <unknown>
It is very strange that it isnt picking up my CPU (Intel I5 5700)
I have also allocated 6gbs of ram, and 24gbs to see if there was a different (there wasnt)
I have installed multiple different drivers, looked on VBox help page and didnt find much, I also did a fresh install of windows 10, which did not help.
If anyone can give me any suggestions or insight, I would be much appreciated.
as far as i know a virtual machine can't run the graphics card to its correct drivers and thus doesn't run games correctly as its not using the card fully, but a virtual card within the virtual box
3D acceleration with Windows guests requires Windows
2000, Windows XP, Vista or Windows 7. Both OpenGL and
Direct3D 8/9 (not with Windows 2000) are supported
(experimental).
