Problems with Vbox

Post by Adrian312 »

Hi,

i am new here :)

I have problem with Vbox, latest version. On Ubuntu/Win XP same problem

Ubuntu config on screenshot
WIN same machine but XP is only 32bit

Can't boot due kernel detect issue. See screenshot. Pls help.

Any idea where is the problem or it's my mistake?

Adrian

Adrian, E8400 should work, if the BIOS does it right (cpuid|grep vmx)

i know that about WIN XP 32bit, but i have same error like in ubuntu 64bit :(

today: when i look on setings VM machine- enable VT-x/AMD-V. But when i look on info running (hotkey HOST KEY+N) i see VT-x/AMD-V is disabled.

can you post the VBox.log of the guest, and the output of cat /proc/cpuinfo from the host?
