Unable to get 64 bit RedHat on my oracle virtual machine for LINUX training

Oracle Virtual Machine installed from this website virtual - installed the oracle virtual machine successfully accepted all defaults

downloaded winzip 7

https://www.linuxtrainingacademy.com/vdi/ download linux vertical disk image Centos version 7

Extracted Centos version 7 successfully, it is 64 bit

unable to open due to the fact that my virtual machine settings do not go beyond 32 bit I have no idea why?
I have rebooted no change please see screen shots

Looking at your .docx file above, looks more like you're running a 64 bit VM, then trying to install a 32 bit Distro image, as the image is listed as a 32 bit CentOS version.

Likely fix will be to use a 64 bit CentOS image, rather than 32 bit image.

Hi David I downloaded the 65 bit CentOS Image...

David Favor

Referring to your attached slide shows...

Red Hat (32 Bit)

This suggest somehow you've ended up with a 32 bit image.

Download the 64 bit image again, as your starting point will likely require running a 64 bit image on a 64 bit VM.

Thanks David, I have cleared everything out and downloaded again.. I am thinking it could be something I need to change in the bios... I might get the guys to have look at work... I am using a windows 10 new HP 64 bit operating system...so I am stumped...
