I see the problem there(to be exact: It's the AMD thing)

graphics card doesn't matter
RAM could be more, but should be enough to run a smaller server
Enable AMD-V in your VM's settings and in your bios(I'm not sure if you have to enable it; You always have to in Intel CPUs)

Bullshit. Should work like a charm if you setup the virtualbox the right way. Seems like your own PC, if you want to publish the server, you shouldcare about your connetion.

Pff mate dont think you would need 64gb ram to run a server,i run vsro files with 3gb ram ^^about 20 peeps with 16gb ram will run like charm cheers.:)

Nope, the virtualization exenstions are turned on by default on -most- modern computers (that support it, that is)

Virtualbox is not really the ideal virtualization technology to run servers on, not to mention the amd cpu is really old, desktop grade hardware (is not meant to be running 24/7) and slow harddisks. Internet connections would probably not bottleneck the server (unless he has under 10mbit up/down) and if you don't care about ping

It was disabled in my BIOS
And I have an Asus Rampage IV Extreme with an Intel i7 3970X
modern enough, I guess
And it was also disabled on an older notebook I have(still a quad core)
Maybe I was "unlucky" dunno

I haven't ever had it locked, but I guess that's because I usually work with server-grade hardware, it might depend on manufacturer

As friend told us - VirtualBox isn't good, most of programs won't work, and vsro server will pretty laggy

Hyper-V . Best virtualization software if you are intending to setup a SRO server. It offers you everything you need to run it properly .

I think it is available on Windows 7 Ultimate/Enterprise, also, Windows Server 2008 R2 etc, I have it on Windows 8 Enterprise (Control Panel -> Program Features -> (Left) Turn Windows features on or off or for windows 8) .

Operating system
Windows 8, Windows Server 2012, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Server 2008

btw: There are better things available if you wanna make it REAL professional
IBM has some solutions(there are many more ofc)

I doubt he wants to make it REAL professional. I guess he is going to play with some friends .

the latest hyper-v versions are quite stable and are surely 'professional' (as hyperv is developed originally for use in cloud applications/datacenters)

If you wanna make it "real professional" you would simply use esxi or a rhel/kvm stack.
