I am attempting to set-up a Windows 7 64-Bit Virtual Machine using VirtualBox and the discs that came with my computer. Apparently, there is an issue with the virtual machine not recognizing my CPU as being 64-Bit.
VirtualBox gives me the following error when I boot the virtual machine:
VT-x/AMD-V hardware acceleration has been enabled, but is not operational. Your 64-bit guest will fail to detect a 64-bit CPU and will not be able to boot.
Please ensure that you have enabled VT-x/AMD-V properly in the BIOS of your host computer.
I have looked at my computer's BIOS, but I cannot find anything that appears relevant to this error message.
Also, attached is a screenshot of the error I get when attempting to boot from the first of the Windows discs.
