The virtual machine is configured for 64-bit guest operating system
"The virtual machine is configured for 64-bit guest operating system,however 64 bit operation is not possible" i have tried installing redhat linux on vmware 10..iam using lenovo laptop with dual core processor,1.5gb ram,250gb hdd and phoenix core utility bios,i have also tried to enable vt-x in bios but there is no such option..help me it urgent
The windows machine is the host, in this configuration, the CentOS 5 server the guest.
Intel VT-x is the Intel virtualization "module" that supports hardware virtualization, which is apparenlty not running on the windows machine... at least, according to that message.
Yeah, might very well be that you're processor truly doesn't support it. Need to know which generation it is to know for sure if it supports it or not.

A lot of intel's for laptops do not support vt-x. There has to be full support for both cpu and chipset and bios.
Might look at cpu at intel for features. then check for chipset and then check for bios settings. May not be clearly marked as to what to enable in bios.
For some reason I think some vm will work if needed. Pretty sure qemu will still work as it is full emulated cpu.
my laptop does not support virtualization ,so i have overcome the problem by installing 32bit linux on the virtual machine..now its fine..so we can onlly install 32 bit operating systems on the machine.
