Virtual Machine Not Working (Bios Vitulalization Active)
Hi Community,
I am a newbie and trying to install .ova file to Virtual Machine.
Although I have Enabled "Virtualization" from Bios (my device Lenovo E490, i5, 500SSD, 16Gb RAM), I get the error "This kernel requires an x86-64 CPU, but only detected an i686 CPU, the BIOS setting for virtualization is most likely not enabled on your computer."
I have attached a few screen shots, I would appreciate your help.
Thanks in advance.
I also ran into this issue and it looks like it comes and goes since a couple of years.
Example: https://collaborate.pega.com/question/lsa-731-vm-kernel-requires-x86-64-cpu-only-detected-i686-cpu
In the VM settings (Settings > General > Basic) make sure the version is 64 bit (see screenshot in the link above).
Perhaps it's an idea to update the documentation? Pega_Academy_Virtual_Machine_User_Guide.pdf
