It was running last week but now will not run gives error

Kernel driver not installed (rc=-1908)
The VirtualBox Linux kernel driver is either not loaded or not set up correctly. Please try setting it up again by executing

'/sbin/vboxconfig'

I think it is because the kernel was updated anyway of stepping back to the older kernel?

Thanks for any help.

So did you try what it suggested?
Did you search the error message?
Did you upgrade your system since last week?

Yes does not work.
It also says run it so I tried putting ./ in from just had the same.

When I first installed the same mesage came up then it worked after I did that.
