I am trying to enable my windows 7 VM 64bit to be able to have virtualisation in the BIOS,
The scenario I have is that I have installed Oracle Virtual Box on the VM but it will not recognise any 64 bit operating options to install a vm
I have checked under the Windows 7 VM settings and it has options to change the CPU/ MMU Virtualization but what option I choose you can still not see it in the BIOS and Virtual Box still will see any 64 bit options
Any help would be greatly appreciated
This depend on your System's Processor that its support Virtualization or not, not on Windows. Which processor your System has ? Use below tools to identify this for Intel or AMD.
GRC | SecurAble: Determine Processor Security Features |
Intel : Intel® Processor Identification Utility
See this blog for more details.

It depends on your system's CPU, not the OS. Check the CPU compatibility, please
