Hi There guys While trying to create a Windows DomU I''ve get this error Error: HVM guest support is unavailable: is VT/AMD-V supported by your CPU and enabled in your BIOS? But my CPU says it supports hardware virtualization, what''s wrong?, or does xen search for a particular flag ( svm ) processor : 3 vendor_id : AuthenticAMD cpu family : 16 model : 5 model name : AMD Athlon(tm) II X4 630 Processor stepping : 2 cpu MHz : 1527569.062 cache size : 512 KB fpu : yes fpu_exception : yes cpuid level : 5 wp : yes flags : fpu de tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic mtrr mca cmov clflush mmx fxsr sse sse2 ht syscall nx mmxext fxsr_opt lm 3dnowext 3dnow constant_tsc rep_good nonstop_tsc extd_apicid pni cx16 popcnt hypervisor lahf_lm cmp_legacy extapic cr8_legacy abm sse4a misalignsse 3dnowprefetch bogomips : 5624.82 TLB size : 1024 4K pages clflush size : 64 cache_alignment : 64 address sizes : 48 bits physical, 48 bits virtual power management: ts ttp tm stc 100mhzsteps hwpstate Thanks for your time and support Regards _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

Some vendor turn it off by default but provides a setting to turn it on, others (like Sony) simply don''t allow users to use that feature. -- Fajar _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

What does cat /proc/cpuinfo say? is SVM/VMX flag present? If not then cpu doesnt support it or bios isnt enabling that feature.

No ''svm'' flag, so go an hit your mobo maker with a stick. :) Ask them to enable it or give your money back.

One thing you could check, is try downloading Virtualbox/Vmware, and try creating 64bit guests. If it works, then your CPU and BIOS is capable of hardware virtualization, and there''s something wrong with your Xen installation. If it doesn''t work, then it confirms my guess. -- Fajar _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

On my ASUS mainboards, I had to upgrade the BIOS to get this option working. If the BIOS does not support it, the OS won''t be able to support it either. -- Joost Roeleveld _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
