    Why is my core2 duo processor is not compatable

    My version of Window 7 Pro is 32 bit. So I am still in the dark as to why my processor (core2duo) is not supported.

    I've installed it on my old core 2 laptop - dual boot with Win7 on the primary HD - separate partitions. Haven't tried it with vmware but I do recall a post somewhere about the memory allocation.

    Are you trying to install 32 or 64 bit? Try 32 bit.

    The problem is that "core 2 duo" is only a family name and does not refer to a specific processor. There are quite a few processors in that family with quite different capabilities. It would help if you could provide the full name.

    As LMiller7 correctly states, there are several types of Core 2 Duo. Mine is the P8400 @2.26GHz Penryn 45nm. Running Win10 x64. 6GB ram.

    Yeah, i downloaded the x86 iso. But my Pc is from 2007. So 64 bit software is dead slow on it. Will try to work it out.

    It should work. I have a similar CPU in an old notebook and it installed fine. I guess it´s not a processor thing !

    I would check your bios to make sure there are no settings that disable PAE. This processor doesn't have any virtualization technology, and i'm wondering if Windows 10 might require some level of virtualization to work.

    The problem may be in VMWare configuration for Windows 10. It is not yet officially supported as a client and that causes some issues.

    This article shows how to install Windows 10 on VMWare workstation but it should be similar for other versions:
    Install the Windows 10 Technical Preview in VMware Workstation 10

    Edit: From what I understand CPU Nx support isn't necessary in VMWare but performance will be better if it is present. Your CPU supports this feature but it must be enabled in the BIOS. In my case it was not. I believe virtualization support is necessary to install a 64 bit OS.
