VirtualBox: 64-bit Guest OS

VirtualBox and Hyper-V

While playing with Vagrant, VirtualBox, and MongoDB on my old ASUS ROG Generation 1 - which has Intel Q720 CPU and runs Windows 10 64-bit - I ran into this error.

VT-x is not available(VERR_VMX_NO_VMX).
VirtualBox error: Intel VT-x is not available

Also, VirtualBox list only 32-bit version for guest OS.

It is so weird because I can installed Ubuntu 64-bit as guest OS in VirtualBox while booting this laptop in Windows 7 64-bit.


I tried removing Hyper-V feature and reboot.


VirtualBox now display 64-bit version of guest OSes.


And Vagrant works too.

[GoogleAdsense] Notes from the field

Google AdSense: Notes from the field Cannot open ads in new tab/window Opening the ads in a new window Generally, it is our policy to not allow Google ads to open in a new window. However, in a few markets, including China, we've found that opening ads in a new window better aligns with expected internet behavior and provides a more consistent, intuitive user experience. Keeping in mind the importance of the user experience, we've enabled Google ads to open in new windows in locations where this is expected browsing behavior. This functionality is determined by the IP of the user, and is not an option you can select your AdSense account. We also ask that you don't modify the AdSense  ad code  or alter the result of clicking on an ad on your website, as such behavior violates our program policies.
