Without (a lot) more information we can’t help you.

What host OS/SP ?
What VM ?
What OS did you install on the VM ?
What exact avast version ?
etc.

I haver installed OS Windows 7.
I have Virtualbox.
The last version.
I think it’s because the Hardware acceleration is not available in my laptop.

That is not strange at all.
If you want to run a OS in a VM, you need at least 4 Mb for the host OS and 4 Mb for the the OS in the VM.
That means you need at least have 16 GB of physical installed and that is the bare minimum.
