Host: Intel DG31PR board; q8400 processor. VT enabled in Bios. XP SP3.
Create virtual machine for an os/2 guest. When I try to power it on, I get this message:
OS/2 is not supported with software virtualization. To run OS/2, you need a CPU that supports hardware virtualization.
In VMWARE log I find this:
Jan 06 17:19:32.703: vmx| MONITOR MODE: allowed modes : BT
Jan 06 17:19:32.703: vmx| MONITOR MODE: user requested modes : BT HV HWMMU

Jan 06 17:19:32.703: vmx| ----------------------------------------
Jan 06 17:19:32.750: vmx| Module MonitorMode power on failed.
What am I doing wrong? Pse be gentle, I'm a relative beginner with VMWare although I've been involved in mainframe virtualization for many years.
tnx
