Question ** Cannot Run Virtual Operating System - Errors - Need Help **

[ttechf]

Hi, I recently built a new computer, it's brand new. Everything is running great but I downloaded VMWare so I could play around with virtual operating systems when I need to, and test things. Attached is the errors I get, and I am wondering what I exactly need to do so I can actually use VMWare and such. I've ran virtual machines on other computers and never got this error.


Thank you!!

What CPU do you have? I think all new processors support VT-x, but you have to enable it.

So, do exactly what the message tells you - enable VT-x in the motherboard BIOS.

If you have the motherboard manual, read it.

Thanks, solved my problem. I didn't realize I had to enable it in the BIOS. I did that, and it worked fine.
