Ubuntu – VM VirtualBox doesn’t allow to enable 64-bit guest on Ubuntu 12.04 and Lenovo G500S

12.0464-bitlenovovirtualboxvirtualization

I've installed VM VirtualBox v. 4.3.8 on my Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (Lenovo G500S with Intel 1005M processor) and I can't configure any 64-bit guest (nor Windows, neither other OS). Inslalation of Win 8.1 64-bit under 32-bit profile obviously fails…
My processor supports VT-x technology, but in my BIOS there is no enable/disable option for VT-x. Is there any way to force VirtualBox to support 64-bit guest ?

Best Answer

It seems that I have already found the reason. Simply I was searching VT-x model in BIOS setup, but there was line called Intel Virtualization Technology and this one was disabled. After enabling all 64-bit options are visible in my VM. Question can be closed...
