Installing Linux on Vmware - Help needed

Hi Friends
I am trying to install linux (32 bit) on windows.
so i used Oracle virtual box and Vmware player in windows and installed them.

but there is no category to select Linux version 7.

how to install it pls help here.

Just choose Linux (32 bit or 64 bit).
Distribution and version is irrelevant.

Be sure to download the newest virtualbox or vmware.

Hope that helps.
Regards
Peasant.

You cannot run a 64-bit OS on a 32-bit CPU

I have found the issue. there is a setting in CMOS of my pc for virtulalization... its disabled and i enabled it. now i could install it.

other wise it dosent allow 64 bi OS to install in Virtual box
