vmware - enable AMD-v on Asus M4A88T-M with AMD Phenom II X6 1090T


I've problems with x64-virtualisation in VMware Workstation. I don't know what's the problem:


Hardware: AMD Phenom II 1090T (does support AMD-v), ASUS M4A88T-M Mainboard and 8GB of RAM. That should be enough to do some little virtualisation.


Software: Windows 7 Enterprise x64, VMware Workstation 7.1, ESX 4.1 as VM in VMware Workstation


I tried to create a VM on that ESX but got this error:
enter image description here


I looked in my BIOS but found nothing like "enable virtualization". The Mainboard manual doesn't have information about virtualization.


I hope someone can tell me what to do to allow x64-guests on my esx-vm.

According to this ASUS calls the setting "Secure Virtual Machine Mode" in the BIOS. According to your manual, it should be listed under Advanced / CPU Configuration. There is a German manual on the ASUS site if your BIOS uses that. The German manual calls it "Secure Virtual Machine Modus" or "SVM".
