Error 5D on INstalling WIndows 8 (Not DEP related)

Post by Malaidas »

Hi all

I have been attepting to install a WIndows 8 Professional Client under Virtual Box (latest version) running under the Vista OS

I continually get a 5D error

I have checked that DEP is enabled both in bios and through advanced computer settings

DOes anyone have any other ideas as to what may be leading to this error please?

00:00:08.487638 HWACCM: No VT-x or AMD-V CPU extension found. Reason VERR_VMX_NO_VMX

The last I heard VT-x/AMD-v (hardware virtualization) was a requirement for a Windows 8 guest even 32-bit.
