Hello, I am new to proxmox and servers in general. I have an old desktop that I am playing around with to set up as truenas server until I can afford to buy something nice. I am trying to set up truenas as a vm. I have got everything set up and ready to go, but when I the start button I get an error that says Error: start failed: QEMU exited with code 1. From what I've been able to find it seams that my CPU configuration is wrong, but I'm not sure what to change about it and I have not been able to find anything helpful online. My computer is a Dell Quattro 420 with an intel core 2 quad processor, 4x2gb ram, 4 3.5" drives and 1 2.5", and a gt 730. Everything is stock with the exception of the graphics card because the original one gave out. Any help is much appreciated and if I left out any important information let me know and I will include it.

Edit: I just figured out how to look at the task history and get more details. The second image is the details.
Second Edit: After researching the detail errors I was able to fix it by changing the processor type to kvm64
