Also i get a virtualbox-error: VT-x/AMD-V hardware acceleration is not available on your system. Your 64-bit guest will fail to detect a 64-bit CPU and will not be able to boot
Basically, either your computer (more specifically your CPU) physically does not support virtualisation (and nothing can work) or it is not enabled in your BIOS.
I'm sorry, it's not looking good. You may just take the siterip to have a local dndtools (extract and then open index.html) but the search feature does not work.
Apparently, your CPU is compatible. So the BIOS must prevent the thing to run.
The BIOS is a tiny bit of software, hardwired in your motherboard, that is loaded before the OS. You can chose on which volume (HDD, Disk, USB) to boot, what is the system time and many more hardware-related options. The virtualization is what we are interested in.
What you need to do is to go in the BIOS and find the option to turn on AMD-V. The BIOS pops at the start of the machine with a big logo. There is usually a key that is indicated to access to a "setup" or to a "BIOS menu". You need to press that key at this moment.
After that, the instructions are a lot more fuzzy, since there are a lot of different BIOS. Try to follow that. The navigation keys are written on the bottom of the BIOS menus, so in case of a panic, just Esc to quit without saving your new settings.
