My host OS is Linux thus I don't have any experience with running VirtualBox on Windows.
I suppose that you tried to check the device in VirtualBox USB device list after booting to fastboot mode.
If that gives you the error you mentioned then I guess some driver/app holds the ownership of the fastboot USB device and you need to convince Windows to get their hands off the Kindle in fastboot mode somehow.
In Linux I'd just rmmod the driver but in Windows ... who knows.
