Enable Nested VT-x/AMD-V not active.

Post by harunk »

I checked hyper-v from Windows features, hyper-v is active.
Bios virtualization is enabled, but am I seeing this error again. Any idea?

The reason is stated in the error message. VT-x is not available. Either it is not enabled in the BIOS or something else is preventing VirtualBox from using it. The list of things which can cause that is quite long!

See this "sticky" on that topic. viewtopic.php?f=1&t=62339
