    Do you have virtualization extensions enabled in your BIOS? If you do not, it may need to be turned on (Intel Virtualization Extensions). – Thomas Ward Oct 08 '18 at 15:28
  • I will have to fine out to BIOS … let me look that up (unless you have a refer) – George Oct 08 '18 at 15:30

You need to enable virtualization extensions in your BIOS.

By default, this is typically turned off in the BIOS; to virtualize a 64bit CPU you have to enable the virtualization extensions in your BIOS/UEFI firmware.
