I got an 64 bit image for VirtualBox (.vmdk file) and I don't have a 32 bit version. My coputer doesn't support hardware virtualization. Logically VirtualBox says

This kernel requeires an x86-64 CPU, but only detected an i686 CPU. Unable to boot - please a kernel appropriate for your CPU.

If I don't have a 32 bit version, does that simply mean I am screwed?
