problem to install vm w2K3 R2 x64

[kaoju]

Hello i have 2 servers, one with VIC and another with esx 3.0.2 update 1.

I want to install about esx a vm w2k3 R2 x64 but i can't, the platform don't support this system. With an install x32 no problem. The VT is enabled about the esx server.

An idea?

thanks

Did you power cycle the host after enabling VT?

For Intel based hosts you have to make sure that the CPU supports EM64T which is not a "True" 64-bit chipset but supports 64-bit processing and also as jmattson suggested after enabling VT in the BIOS have you restarted ?

As the pervious two posters have said, your Host server chipset had to be at least a AMD revE or above, or if an Intel Chip, support EM64T. also Intel Chipsets have to have the VT extensions enabled in the BIOS, if your server does not have this, as your HW vendor ifr a BIOS update to activate this feature is available.

There is one or more of the above missing on your Host system

Once these have been verified, Reboot your server, I would recommend a Cold reboot rather than a restart.
