Description (last modified by frank) (diff)

A single VirtualBox host can deploy as many guest VMs as the host hardware can handle. Windows 10 RTM build 10240 (32-bit and 64-bit) Windows Server 2012 (64-bit). When I start VirtualBox, I only have 32 bit operating systems available. After some research I followed the steps on another post but to no avail. My host OS is 64 bit, Intel Virtualization Technology and VT-d are both enabled in the BIOS, and Hyper-V platform is disabled in the Windows Feature list, yet I still only am presented 32 bit.

I google for '64 bit guest on 32 bit host' (it's among the suggestions once you start typing 'virtualbox 64') and get lots of: 'Now 64 bit guests supported on 32 bit hosts'. Next, I try to boot, and it gives me: 'your CPU is not 64-bit capable'.
