opensuse Leap 42.1 AMD-V failed to open session VirtualBox 5.0.10_SUSE r104061
Using Leap 42.1 on and ASUS M5A78L-MUSB3 mother board with AMD FX8320 eight core processor and 16 gigs ram. Installed VirtualBox Graphical User Interface version 5.0.10_SUSE r104061 using YAST without issues.
After trying to run my first operating system install I get the following message:
Failed to open a session for the virtual machine “MyTitle”
AMD-V is disabled in the BIOS (or by the host OS)(VERR_SVM_DISABLED)
ResultCode: NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005)
Component:ConsoleWrap
Interface: Iconsole {872da645-4a9b-1727-bee2-5585105b9eed}
Can not find any setting in the motherboard BIOS covering virtualization.
Any suggestions on how to deal with this issue would be appreciated.
