64 bit guests on Windows8.1

Post by Erik Kruyt »

I moved to a new system with Windows 8.1, Asus H97-PLUS and Intel cpu I5-4590. I installed VirtualBox V4.3.20. When creating a new virtual machine I can only select 32 bit systems. However I want to create a 64 bit system. What can I do?

There are three groups of people. Those that can count and those that can't.
