Need some help...
I'm trying to install "debian-504-amd64" use VirtualBox 3.1.6 on Win 7 (64 bit).

and this is what I got:
"This kernel requires an x86-64 CPU, but only detected an i686 CPU."

So... it's about the settings or something else?

Make sure that you bios supports and has hardware virtualization enabled.

For the 64 bit VM (in case you want to know why it doesn't work or want to get one eventually) see the VirtualBox FAQ.
