I'm having great difficulty in getting virtualbox running. every time
that I try to install an iso it fails and shows this in a pop-up -
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Failed to open a session for the virtual machine Debian-64.
VT-x is disabled in the BIOS for all CPU modes (VERR_VMX_MSR_ALL_VMX_DISABLED).
Result Code: NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005) Component: ConsoleWrap Interface: IConsole
{872da645-4a9b-1727-bee2-5585105b9eed}
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
I've had a look at the bios setup and I can't see anywhere that mentions 'vt-x'.
According to dmidecode this is my bios -

Check your particular virtual machine settings in VirtualBox's VM
Manager -- System -> Acceleration -- that both hardware accelerations
options, VT-x/AMD-V and Nested Paging, are enabled. If they are
already enabled, check your motherboard BIOS' CPU settings for
similar options.
Now download and read/study VirtualBox's VERY complete user manual.
Yes! I really do mean read the entire fucking manual, cover to cover.
It's the only reference I've ever needed in the dozen or so years I've
been using VirtualBox. It's Troubleshooting Section is particularly
useful.

[...] Take a look at your Motherboard manual, page 62, section 2-30: https://dlcdnets.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/LGA1151/PRIME_Z270-P/E12008_PRIME_Z270-P_UM_web_only_20170712.pdf "Intel Virtualization Technology [Disabled] When set to [Enabled], a VMM can utilize the additional hardware capabilities provided by Vanderpool Technology. Configuration options: [Disabled] [Enabled]" Enter your BIOS setup program by pressing <DEL> or <F2> at boot during POST and change to [Enabled].
