Either your computer's "virtualization technology" (VT-x / AMD-V / SVM) is not on in the BIOS or Hyper-V is active. Go through everything in:
I have a 64bit host, but can't install 64bit guests

If "virtualization technology" is enabled in the BIOS, then your host might have Hyper-V enabled, see HMR3Init: Attempting fall back to NEM (Hyper-V is active)
