I am trying to test a virtual appliance within a Cloudshare environment. Not sure if what I am trying to do is possible. I have just a basic Cloudshare account so I can load VM images. So, instead I created a Win 2008 R2 server instance within Cloudshare, and trying to load the .ova file using VM Player. Unfortunately I get an error that says I need to enable VT-X in the bios. I found an article that says I should be able to do this in the console (https://support.cloudshare.com/hc/communities/public/questions/200333045-how-to-enable-a-VT-X-on-a-windows-2008-server-?locale=en-us), but when I try to hit F2 to get to bios configuration during reboot nothing happens.

Any suggestions? Thanks.

  Small typo "I can't load NATIVE VMs"
