Hi,
Newbie, so likely I'm doing something obviously wrong, but here goes:
I have used the standalone VMWare vCentre Convertor to create a VM of a laptop drive I want as a VM, which has run successfully. However, when I try to open this in Player, I get the following error:
This virtual machine is configured for 64-bit guest operating systems. However, 64-bit operation is not possible.
This host supports Intel VT-x, but Intel VT-x is disabled.
Intel VT-x might be disabled if it has been disabled in the BIOS/firmware settings or the host has not been power-cycled since changing this setting.
(1) Verify that the BIOS/firmware settings enable Intel VT-x and disable 'trusted execution.'
(2) Power-cycle the host if either of these BIOS/firmware settings have been changed.
(3) Power-cycle the host if you have not done so since installing VMware Player.
(4) Update the host's BIOS/firmware to the latest version.
For more detailed information, see http://vmware.com/info?id=152.
The Host machine is running 64-Bit Win10, and I've run the recommended Intel check tool and it confirms VT-x is available, and the VMWare tool confirms 64-bit operation. The Host is a HP Z840 Xeon ES-2620 2.4GHz 16GB RAM running Win10 Pro 64-bit. The machine that was converted to a VM using convertor is a Core i7-2670QM 2.2GHz 8GB RAM Win 7 Ultimate 64-bit laptop.
Any/all help very gratefully received!
TC
