This virtual machine is configured for 64-bit guest operating systems......

Hello everybody,

i have running on my PC VMware Workstation 8.

I have enough ressources to create and start my own Virtual machines, but if i get some VM from another system there comes everytime this Error:

I can start and create my own virtual machines, but as i said in the upper part i can´t start virtual machines that haven´t been started on my PC.

Thanks for helping

You can create and start only 32-bit virtual machines, right?

...but if i get some VM from another system there comes everytime this Error:

This only occurs with 64-bit virtual machines, right?

Presumably, you have an Intel processor.  VT-x is required for executing 64-bit virtual machines on Intel processors, and it is likely that VT-x is disabled in your BIOS.  See Trouble-shooting Intel VT-x Issues.

Thanks.

This was the problem:smileyblush::smileygrin:.

I thought VT-x has been activated.

Thanks for helping:)
