hello,
i was hoping someone could help me with an error message i am receiving when trying to open my virtual box. i am running it on my new macbook pro running version 10.8.2, processor: 2.3 GHz intel core i7 and this is the error messages i am receiving:
Failed to open a session for the virtual machine ilsonsystem.
VT-x is being used by another hypervisor. (VERR_VMX_IN_VMX_ROOT_MODE).
VirtualBox can't operate in VMX root mode. Please close all other virtualization programs. (VERR_VMX_IN_VMX_ROOT_MODE).
Result Code: NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005)
Component: Console
Interface: IConsole {1968b7d3-e3bf-4ceb-99e0-cb7c913317bb}
i googled my error and i found a similar thread saying someone typed the following code:
Code:
sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup
and it fixed their issue but i am not sure where i am typing this code. i am running linux ubuntu on my virtualbox system.
if anyone could help i would greatly appreciate it!
