virtualbox.org

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?

Post the guests log file (as an attachment)
See Online Users Manual for the location of the file.

Hi and thanks

Do you mean the vbox.log file?

yes

I have 4 logs for this VM but this is the latest one. PLease let me know if the others are of use and I'll upload.

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.
