#Virtualbox 64 bit does not work update
But thats not too hard anyway, just annoying with the Ubuntu update every couple of months.Īlso, Why should it matter so gravely if the kernel of the host is 32bit? Isn't the guest running virtually so that it uses its own kernel? I understand that you need the host to recognise the hardware so that it can set the guest to work on it. My only dissappointment with VBox is reconfiguring each time my kernel upgrades. I'll try that if I have to but I prefer the VBox I'm comfotable with. Is it a question of VMWare then? I really prefer Virtualbox because I couldn't figure out VMWare when I first tried it (I was a pretty newbie at linux then). Is it possible then to configure the CPU to work that way? (Maybe with a 32bit host kernel that recognises the dual CPUs) How is it acheived? I have a somewhat new CPU: an AMD64x2 3800. Thanks for the great software! rusl Posts: 13 Joined: 7.

Anyone virtually testing OSs in on a 64 bit VBox will of course want this support too. Maybe Sun can kick in some cash now that they bought the farm!? 64 is the way of the future and a lot of people are going to need this. I really hope the 64 bit OS support comes soon because this is a great program and it would just make it better.
#Virtualbox 64 bit does not work software
It has really worked well for me where other software was more convoluted to figure out. I really love this software, so much I have been thinking of investing in buying it. It would be WAY better to do this virtually.Īnyways, just wanted to chime in because this is the first thing I have needed that VirtualBox didn't do. But the dual boot is annoying and I have a lot of configuring and rebooting to do of my new 64 bit system. But, a lot of people are like me with an OS from before 64 was worth running and needing to transition. I know the somewhat more sensible route is a 64 host and 32 guest. The transition to 64 bit CPUs is slow and it effects every OS. I think a lot of people will be in similar position to me.
#Virtualbox 64 bit does not work 32 bit
This is because the 32 bit kernel is still more stable/reliable/supported in general. But I want to be able to load a 64 bit guest. What I am doing is running a 32 bit host on a 64 bit CPU. … bumping.I want to echo the necessity of the 64 guest support. In the mean time, I am going to go ahead and close this old thread.
#Virtualbox 64 bit does not work windows 10
Does the Windows 10 VM work on other hosts? You assert that it won't get past the Windows logo without acceleration why do you think that it will work with acceleration? In other words, I am not sure you are chasing the same problem.Īs this thread is old and solved, and as I am a moderator I am going to suggest you open a new thread on the topic that you will own.īe sure to tell us about your machine (including make/model), its graphics subsystem, and which kernel you are running. I believe this is all moot with recent versions of VirtualBox. Thinking back, the problem was that a working 32 VM stopped working because the defaults inside VirtualBox changed, and the GUI was not updated to support it. Fortunately, this computer (HP Envy) does have VT-x I have not thought about this issue in a long time. When I started this thread, three years ago, I had a different computer.
The latest version of VirtualBox would again run my 32 bit XP VM without barfing due to lack of Vt-x. Hand editing the XML file that defined my XP VM and adding a tag disabling long mode to the CPU section of the file did the trick. There did not seem to be a GUI hook in the Oracle VM management tool to disable LongMode. It would seem that, missing that tag, the latest version of VirtualBox defaults to enabling LongMode which, in turn, requires Vt-x. The Windows 7 VM, created by the latest incarnation of VirtualBox, had the tag and set it to false. In the older versions of the XML file that defined the XP Virtual Machine, there had been no LongMode tag.
I was wrong, it is (was, actually, I finished my migration to Windows 7) a 32 bit machine.Īpparently, newer versions of VirtualBox have a VM configuration option called LongMode (I am not certain as to the capitalization, I am not in front of my machine).
I had thought that the XP was 64 bit and would not start leading me to believe II had lost Vt-x capability. I could not build a Windows 7 x86_64 machine, only a 32 bit. My confusion was that my XP VM would not start complaining about a lack of Vt-x support. It turns out that my machine does not support Vt-x It never has.
