Windows 10: VT-X not available after windows 10 upgrade from windows 7

After upgrading from windows 7 pro to windows 10 pro, Virtual Box and VMware is giving me a message saying that Intel VT-X is not available.


Before upgrading from windows 7, it was showing up as enabled in VMW and VB, now it isn't with windows 10 installed, And yes, it is enabled in the dell BIOS, Now I cant access my windows XP 64bit install on Virtual box, any ideas?


Processer: Centrino2

System processer info: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo PCU T9900 @ 3.06 GHz 3.07 GHz


Ram: 4.00 GB <-- Not much, but gets the job done, and faster than 7.


System: Windows 10 Pro

Type: 64-BIT 64x.


Dell: Latitude e6500.

VT x is not available in BIOS

Hi,

I am working on Intel Pentium Dual Core T4500, having windows 10 OS. I am trying to run a Windows 7 virtual machine using VMware workstation player 12 but it shows Intel VT-x is disabled in BIOS, but in BIOS I don't see this option
at all. I have searched on intel site that this particular model T4500 doesn't support VT-x. Is there any turn around. If I use Virtualbox will that solve my problem.

Please suggest.

Thanks.

 

Windows 10 upgrade problem, no input accepted

I really hate having to come here and ask for help, but I really am stumped. It hurts my geek pride. I have a PC with fairly modern hardware in it. It has a p8p67 pro in it. I have tried upgrading windows 10 on it twice now. Both times I have had the same result.

After windows finishes upgrading it goes to the log in/set up screen. I can't do anything. No keyboard or mouse input is accepted.

I will list some, or hopefully all, of the troubleshooting steps I have tried:

• Move keyboard and mouse to different USB ports.
• Try different keyboard or mouse.
• Restart computer, repeatedly.
• Google for related issues.
• Update Bios, because why not.
• Create boot media and revert to windows 7.

The windows 10 system restore boot media works fine with keyboard and mouse. All USB ports work in windows 7. I don't know what is wrong. I suspect that windows 10 is lacking a driver of some sort, but since the computer accepts no input I have no way of checking for which driver let alone installing it.

Please help me figure this out. If I have to revert back to windows 7 again, I am not going to get it upgraded to windows 10. Thank you in advanced.

 

Windows 10 to be Free Upgrade for Windows 8.1 and Windows 7 Users

It seems there's still confusion. It is very clear from this post "The next generation of Windows: Windows 10 - Windows Experience Blog" that for the first year it's available, you can upgrade to Windows 10 for free if you have Windows 7 or 8. You will not pay for it. After that year is up, nothing will happen to your Windows 10 license. If you do not upgrade within that year, however, you will have to pay for an upgrade. The offer expires after a year, not the upgrade.
