VirtualBox requires virtualization support from the CPU (and enabled in BIOS/UEFI). So, there's an invisible checkbox in that page that gets locked to "checked"

It's likely that your system does not have both of them (i.e., the CPU does not provide virtualization support [Intel VT-x or AMD-V], or it does but not enabled in BIOS/UEFI).

Can you share the screenshot?

Sorry I wasn't available for a while, What I meant was the BIOS , this is a much older server but it should be outright  clear once you enter the BIOS

I see in your screenshot it's set to HyperV can you also boost the CPU to 2 .
Please let me know
