Then i followed the step to delete all the files and folders that werent locked in the bootcamp partition. I restarted my mabook and made sure it booted into osx on the rEFIt screen. I watched it like a hawk as it was expanding files and installing and as soon as it tried to reboot I shut down virtual box. I started the virtual machine and installed windows. Under Attributes on the right i clicked the little picture of the CD and located my windows 8.1 ISO. Then in virtual box with the new machine highlighted i navigated to settings-storage-controller IDE and selected the empty virtual CD Drive. Once I got the HDD partitioned and followed all the other steps I created a virtual machine for win 8.1. I had to edit bootcamp so it would let me create a bootable usb (which i didnt even use but bootcamp wont let me partition the drive until its created the bootable media) and then partition the HDD My main problem was that the SATA cable for my HDD failed so i had my HDD mounted in the superdrive bay. Hopefully if i make my version of problems and solutions as clear as i can it will help others.
