When I try and launch the VM in VirtualBox I receive errors:
Failed to open a session for the virtual machine Jeff.

Not in a hypervisor partition (HVP=0) (VERR_NEM_NOT_AVAILABLE).

AMD-V is disabled in the BIOS (or by the host OS) (VERR_SVM_DISABLED).

Result Code: E_FAIL (0x80004005)
Component: ConsoleWrap
Interface: IConsole {872da645-4a9b-1727-bee2-5585105b9eed}
I am using an MSI B450 Gaming Pro AC Carbon but cannot find an AMD-V option in the BIOS.
 
Solution
Boot in to Bios.
  • Select "Overclocking"
  • Go to "OC Explore Mode" and turn that to "Expert"
  • Scroll down to "CPU Features"
  • Select "SVM Mode" and "Enable"
  • Save and Exit
Let me know if it's not there. You need this turned on for any virtualization on your system.
