Virtualization BIOS setting Windows 10

The option is called “AMD SVM Support”. SVM (Secure Virtual Machine) is AMD’s take on Intel’s VT-x.


Go into Windows Control Panel (search for Control Panel in toolbar if you can't find it), and select programs. Then select Turn Windows features on and off.

Make sure Hyper V is turned OFF (blank) and reboot if needed.

Windows 10 by default enables Hyper-V, which blocks any other 64bit virtualization.

ps - if you want to get two cores running, set memory in virtualbox, and set key ports forwarded add this to your virtualbox file

# Customize the amount of memory on the VM:
  vb.memory = "3000"
  vb.cpus = "2"
end

config.vm.network "forwarded_port", guest: 80, host: 8080
