Hi All,
I have having a problem installing a 64bit (Windows 7) guest on windows server 2012 R2. Virtual Box doesn't seem to give an option for 64bit guests. Any ideas? THe host OS is 64bit.
Thanks
Windows Server 2012 R2 no 64bit

Re: Windows Server 2012 R2 no 64bit
1) 64-bit guests need hardware-virtualzation enabled in the hosts bios.
2) when creating the 64-bit guest you must select 64-bit in General -> Basic -> version.
3) If running Windows as host you must make sure hyper-v or xp mode is not enabled on the host. MS does not play well and wants it all.
