There is also some discussion on this on askubuntu.Aiming to mostly replicate the build from (with some mods, hopefully around about as good as that link) Enable Virtualization Technology (VTx) and Virtualization Technology Directed I/O (VTd). Here is an example how to do it for HP Compaq 8200 or similar PC: To enable VTx and VTd you have to change corresponding settings in the BIOS. Usually these setting are disabled on the level of BIOS. To run Oracle VM Virtual Box / VMware machines on 64-bit host there is a need to enable Virtualization Technology (VTx) and Virtualization Technology Directed I/O (VTd).
The steps below for HP Compaq 8200 (or similar) is copied verbatim from the comment posted by the user qqdmax5 on Hp discussion board here. If you are working on a different computer, you probably just need to look up how to turn on virtualization on your pc. I was working on a HP Compaq 8200 and followed the steps below to turn on virtualization. I just needed to turn on virtualization on my computer.
Turning PAE/NX on/off didn't work for me.
