I have a new AMD Ryzen 9 3900XT CPU. Previously I've only used Intel CPUs. Should Virtualbox and Theory work on AMD CPUs? I think I've turned AMD's equivalent of VT-d on in the BIOS. I get: 2020-12-26 06:30:51 (2692): Starting VM using VBoxManage interface. (boinc_f5094280ce8f60a2, slot#9) 2020-12-26 06:30:55 (2692): Error in start VM for VM: -2147467259 Command: VBoxManage -q startvm "boinc_f5094280ce8f60a2" --type headless Output: Waiting for VM "boinc_f5094280ce8f60a2" to power on... VBoxManage.exe: error: Not in a hypervisor partition (HVP=0) (VERR_NEM_NOT_AVAILABLE). VBoxManage.exe: error: AMD-V is disabled in the BIOS (or by the host OS) (VERR_SVM_DISABLED) VBoxManage.exe: error: Details: code E_FAIL (0x80004005), component ConsoleWrap, interface IConsole 2020-12-26 06:30:55 (2692): VM failed to start. 2020-12-26 06:30:55 (2692): Could not start 2020-12-26 06:30:55 (2692): ERROR: VM failed to start https://lhcathome.cern.ch/lhcathome/result.php?resultid=292735064 It says memory not available, but the computer has 32GB RAM and is only 38% used before starting the Theory task, so I assume this is a problem with memory not being assigned to Virtualbox?

It also said: AMD-V is disabled in the BIOS (or by the host OS) If you have win 10 Pro, is Hyper-V running? |

Sorted it. Didn't spot the next line "AMD-V is disabled in the BIOS", because I saw "MEM_NOT_AVAILABLE" and stopped reading. Stupid MSI hid the setting in the overclocking menu! Virtualisation is not overclocking! I don't overclock so I hadn't gone in there. It's in the BIOS menus in overclocking, CPU features. Enable the SVM in there. I thought I already had it on, because I did originally, then trashed the BIOS settings by overclocking. So I had to reset the CMOS and put them in again. I thought only memory XMP was in there, and forgot I'd found SVM in there too.

It also said: AMD-V is disabled in the BIOS (or by the host OS)It's Windows 10 Home, but I have other machines with Windows 10 Pro. I've never had to enable Hyper-V, I thought only the BIOS setting was required? Is Hyper-V on by default?

... because I saw "MEM_NOT_AVAILABLE" and stopped reading. VirtualBox mentioned "VERR_NEM_NOT_AVAILABLE" which has nothing to do with MEM. NEM = Native Execution Manager |

Oh, I've got one of those minds that reads this as real words:... because I saw "MEM_NOT_AVAILABLE" and stopped reading.
