Windows 10 x86 without vt-x hangs in startup screen
Posted: 8. Aug 2016, 15:50
Hello, I was testing virtualbox for some proof of concept and therefore I was nesting two virtualboxes, one with ubuntu as parent and one with windows 10 as child.
Due the limitations of virtualbox the nested virtualbox can only be 32-bit without CPU virtualization, therefore I was try to install Windows 10 x86 but if the CPU virtualization is disabled the Windows installer hangs on the stratup screen with the Windows logo. I have searched in internet but I couldn't find any explicit requirement for VT-x for Windows 10, but maybe I missed it.
