Hello,

I have been using Oracle VM Virtual Box Manager ver 6.0.4 on my ThinkPad P1 computer since about six months. Since about a month ago from today, the Ubuntu 18.2LTS mounted on the VM Manager failed to load citing the above error message. Can you please advise if this could be a consequence of a regular windows 10 update? If so, could you please advise on how to resolve this problem.

A similar problem has occured when i have tried mounting an OpenBSD Unix OS, iso image. The iso image downloaded is i386 type.

Any help in this regard is highly appreciated.

Regards,

SS

VirtualBox error

When i try to open a Windows 10 Machine on Virtual Box it shows up this error:

VT-x/AMD-V hardware acceleration is not available on your system. Certain guests (e.g. OS/2 and QNX) require this feature and will fail to boot without it.

How can i fix this?

 

insider programs on a virtual machine

thats what im trying to do. i use virtual box. i have the iso but i keep getting this error:

VT-x/AMD-V hardware acceleration is not available on your system. Certain guests (e.g. OS/2 and QNX) require this feature and will fail to boot without it.

 

VT-x is not available, but is enabled in BIOS

There are three common culprits for the type of error the user is seeing:

• VT-x is not enabled in the BIOS
  
• The CPU doesn't support VT-x
  
• Hyper-V virtualization is enabled in Windows
  

Since the user already eliminated the first two possible culprits, the next step is to open a command prompt as administrator and run the following command:

Afterwards, reboot the PC and try VirtualBox again.
