XP Virtual Box - 64bit

Here's an interesting one..

My main machine runs Win 7 Professional 64 bit. Recently, I tried using a USB to serial converter cable. Wouldn't work, which when troubleshooting the problem is due to it not being compatible with 64 bit operating systems. Another 'RTFM' moment!
Anyhow, no prob I thought. I'll use the XP virtual box facility which Win 7 Pro has. Still no joy.

So, if the host machine is 64 bit, does that mean the the XP virtual box must also be 64 bit as well?
