I have installed pve 3.0 today and create a few vm´s, w7, centos, but i can´t boot any of the VM´s.

i get this errorson both VM´S:

you need to enable hardware virtualization in your main-board bios.

Hi,
* try

 egrep '(vmx|svm)' /proc/cpuinfo

and if you don't find either vmx or svm,
* double check that bios settings are enabling it, and
* after if you enabled virtualization in bios (believe me) shut down the machine, remove the power cables, wait, put them back in. Then retry. Sometimes is just that.
