Hi,

I have a 64bit windows 10 Enterprise host machine with 8 GB RAM. I am not seeing the 64 bit VM option in Virtual Box when I need to create a new VM, screenshot attached. I have gone through the forum and also checked that VT-X option is enabled in the BIOS, screenshot attached. I have also checked that Hyper-V is also not enabled, screenshot attached.

FAQ: I have a 64bit host, but can't install 64bit guests.

Please don't tell is that you checked them all: the FAQ contains a complete list.

Hi mpack,

Yes I have checked all the options mentioned in the FAQ. The 64 bit option doesn't show up while creating the VM.

FWIW, your first screenshot does not indicate that VT-x is enabled in the BIOS. It only indicates your CPU supports it. You need to enter the BIOS to be sure it's enabled.

If it is enabled then point three of the FAQs is the issue. Some other program is using VT-x.
