Below is a posting from another user just recently. The answer to this problem was gibberish by the site moderator (Apple Host?). Since that link is locked because it is resolved(?) I am repeating the question here and looking for a valid answer. I am having the exact same problem and I would like a valid answer. I have Virtual box on a Intel Xenon server and Ubuntu 64 bit shows up. When I installed Virtual Box on my laptop (Windows 7 Professional 64 bit with a Intel Core i5-4300M CPU @2.60GHz), I only have the option for 32-bit Linux (Ubuntu) and other OS's. I sure would like to use the 64-bit OS's like I was on my desktop!

It was showing 64-bit operating systems as one of those options in VirtualBox but you don’t know why there are only 32-bit versions listed below. There are two issues here. You either have Hyper-V turned on, or have Intel Virtualization Technology disabled in BIOS. I was able to install everything fine on my Mac, but when I was on Windows 10 VirtualBox was only showing and allowing me to install 32-bit versions of Linux. I figured out the fix - go into BiOS at startup and make sure the Intel Virtualization Tech is enabled. I had already checked HyperV was disabled in Windows Features. After enabling that BiOS setting I was able to successfully install.

So I have this weird problem that I have been trying to fix for a couple of days now. When installing the latest version of VirtualBox, I can only choose 32 bit when creating a new Machine. After some googling, I found a solution where all I had to do was to Repair the program using the installation file. After repairing, the 64 bit versions shows up. However, after repairing, Virtualbox tells me to reboot my system in order to complete the reparation. But after rebooting the system, I'm back where I started, where only 32 bit is showing up which has left me in some sort of evil circle.
Also, if I try to run a 64 bit Machine after repairing, but before a reboot, I get the following pop-up error: NtCreateFile(DeviceVBoxDrvStub) failed: 0x000000e STATUS_NO_SUCH_DEVICE (164 retries)(rc=-101).
ShowsI am using Windows 7 Professional 64 bit with a Intel Core i5-2540M CPU @2.60GHz. I have(atleast I think I have) disabled Hyper-V and the Intel Processor Identification Utility says the Intel Virtualization Technology and Intel VT-x is enabled(I dont have the BIOS password so I can not verify this in the BIOS itself).

Thanks in advance

I recently upgraded the Windows 8 on my home laptop to Windows 10. Everything works fine except VirtualBox. I installed VirtualBox 5.0.4, after reseting Windows 10 to its original clean status. However, when I was trying to set up a 64-bit virtual machine, I found no 64-bit guest OS option available in the virtual machine setup wizard. There are many suggestions if you try to look up in the Internet. But this one solves my problem: [http://www.fixedbyvonnie.com/2014/11/virtualbox-showing-32-bit-guest-versions-64-bit-host-os/]And a comments in that post suggests some steps are not necessary.

So actually there is only one thing you really need to do, that is, turn on the virtualization technology of the CPU in your BIOS setting. For my Intel CPU, that is the VT-x technology. And then problem solved!
