I have Win7 Home Premium (32-bit) running on my laptop, now just installed Virtual Box 4.1.2.
Now tried to install Windows Server 2008 (64-bit) on my Win 7. I got a problem during the first phase of installation.
My laptop CPU is Intel Core 2 Duo CPU T6500 2.1GHz, I believe they are 64-bit processor, but I got the screen after I inserted the Windows Server 2008 installation disc said:
"Attempting to load a 64-bit application, however this CPU is not compatible with 64-bit mode."
Any idea how do I get around that?

sorry this one can't do "hardware virtualisation", see missing VT-x bit here: http://ark.intel.com/VTList.aspx#26548 ... but VBox needs that for 64bit guest support => http://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch10.html#hwvirtManUtdFans wrote:CPU is Intel Core 2 Duo CPU T6500
