Windows 7 Local won't load - stuck on "Checking System"

I tried launching local on my windows 7 machine, but it won’t get past checking system -

I uninstalled and reinstalled Local - same problem. I am not getting any error messages just stuck on “checking system”

I read through some of the thread but did not find an answer. I ran a command line suggested in one of the threads - The command line came back with " Host Already Exist: “local-by-flywheel”

On my mac it installed and runs fine - but I want it on my PC where most of my workflow is located.

What should I do?

Here’s the flywheel log.

Hi @kmcgourty,

Sorry for the trouble!

We’ll look into why the error didn’t show, but it is fortunately in the log file (thanks for providing it!):

This computer doesn't have VT-X/AMD-v enabled. Enabling it in the BIOS is mandatory

To remedy it, please see [Windows] Help! I'm getting a BIOS error about VT-X/AMD-v during installation
