2/14/2023 0 Comments How to use virtualbox with amd![]() ![]() I have BH-F2 revision, so it may mean that it could be CPU issue that BIOS is just not covering, i.e. Until recently I was unaware of the fact that AMD F2 stepping has buggy virtualization. ![]() (Similarly to my #2061, where faghutz came with Mac OS X problem.) But ad rem. ![]() It was closed after bvkchaitanya came with other than predecessors' problem, that should have its own issue actually. The issue was going to cover AMD virtualization problems. OS/2 is working in Parallels Workstation too, so my OS/2 copy is good. But it is working fine in Microsoft Virtual PC - with and without hardware virtualization. I wasn't succeed - OS/2 freezes at startup screen. I suspected that hardware virtualization is enabled in VBox only when needed, so I tried to install OS/2. I installed VirtualBox 1.6.0 - 1.6.4 and I found that VT-x wasn't working too. I found that almost 1/2 of them was missing VT-x, because of strange motherboard problems, but some of them were working properly with VT-x enabled in Parallels Workstation and Microsoft Virtual PC 2007. Then I guessed that VBox don't work properly with AMD SVM, so I tested it on several Core 2 Duo systems with Intel VT-x. I suspected that my motherboard or my CPU for some weird reason is not working properly with VBox, so I tried it on my other computers - the result was the same: hardware virtualization wasn't working at all with VBox, but it was working very well with VMWare Workstation, Xen, Parallels Workstation. Then I tried several other OS that I already have installed on my PC - both 32 and 64 bit - the situation was the same: I enabled the option, but in running VM I found that it's disabled. I am using VirtualBox in my home for testing purposes and after some time I found that I can't make hardware virtualization to work with my main home computer. In my work I am using several virtualization products - VMWare ESX, VMWare Server, Parallels, Xen, Microsoft Virtual Server, Microsoft Virtual PC, linux vserver and some other. Yes, I have multiply boot machines in my home and a lot of servers and workstations at my work - I already said I am System Administrator, I am not an ordinary user.
