ERROR: 64-bit guest operating systems. This host does not support Intel VT-x. !!

Hi ,

I've installed a virtual "Windows 2008 R2 standard" on my "Macbook pro"  successfully ( I have fusion 5 on my Macbook) .

Now I'm trying to install ESX 5.0 on my virtual windows 2008 and getting below error (i'm using Vmware workstation 10.0.1 on windows 2008)  :

=================================================

This virtual machine is configured for 64-bit guest operating systems. However, 64-bit operation is not possible.

This host does not support Intel VT-x.

For more detailed information, see http://vmware.com/info?id=152.

=================================================

After getting this error, I tried to install same ESX iso  through fusion on my Mac OS and result was successful so I think my CPU support VT-x !!

Anyone knows how can I install ESX on my virtual windows 2008? what could be the problem here ?

Thanks in advance
