This host supports Intel VT-x but Intel VT-x is disabled.

This host supports Intel VT-x, but Intel VT-x is disabled.


Intel VT-x might be disabled if it has been disabled in the BIOS/firmware settings or the host has not been power-cycled since changing this setting.
(1) Verify that the BIOS/firmware settings enable Intel VT-x and disable 'trusted execution.'
(2) Power-cycle the host if either of these BIOS/firmware settings have been changed.
(3) Power-cycle the host if you have not done so since installing VMware Player.
(4) Update the host's BIOS/firmware to the latest version.
This host does not support "Intel EPT" hardware assisted MMU virtualization.
This host does not support virtualizing real mode. The Intel "VMX Unrestricted Guest" feature is necessary to run this virtual machine on an Intel processor.
Module 'CPUIDEarly' power on failed.
Failed to start the virtual machine.


You find the above messages when you try to create and running VM on windows 7 8 10 with VMware 14. This message appears because you try to use the virtualization on your PC but it is disabled on it. For resolving this you are required to enable it on your PC. You can enable it using following steps:
1. Restart your PC and enter into setup/BIOS mode, for Dell PC you need to press F2 in the start for BIOS setting.
2. Once you are in BIOS, find the option of virtualization.



3. Enable it and save the setting.
4. Restart your PC and try again by creating the VM in Vmware 14, this time you will successfully create your VM.

In case of issue you can share your experience in comments, also you are having PC with Core 2 Duo Txxxx processor you may get the following message:

"This host does not support "Intel EPT" hardware assisted MMU virtualization."

This means that your processor does not support EPT virtualization but you can either use and download VMware12.5.7. This should still support the TXXXX CPU. I hope this is helpful for you, thank you for visiting.
