installing W7 64bit on virtualbox with vista64bit SP1host

Post by fonzie2405 »

I have a problem installing my windows7 64bit version on a virtualbox on a vista 64bit sP1 host. Windows7 installer tells me that I don't have 64bit compatible processor (intel T7100 dual core). Does anybody has this problem solved?
Installing 32 bit W7 works fine.
