Re: An error occurred while attempting to start the selected virtual machine
Hi,
1. Check Hyper-V Requirements enabled or not ?
E.g:
c:\>Systeminfo
Hyper-V Requirements: VM Monitor Mode Extensions: Yes
Virtualization Enabled In Firmware: Yes
Second Level Address Translation: Yes
Data Execution Prevention Available: Yes
All of above should be YES,
2. Ensure that Virtualization Enabled in the BIOS "RBSU-> System Option->Processor Option->Enable Intel VD-d"
3. Ensure that Hyper-V service is running,
4. Run following "BCDEDIT /Set {current} hypervisorlaunchtype auto"
Hope this helps!,
Regards,
Sudhir

Thanks for answer
There is the only option about virtualization:
Systeminfo, 3 running Hyper-v services and succeed "BCDEDIT /Set {current} hypervisorlaunchtype auto":
systeminfo doesn't show what you asked

Re: An error occurred while attempting to start the selected virtual machine
Did that worked ?
Refer following Microsoft article relevent to this issue:
Ensure that BIOS is updated.
also verify " No-run Memory Protection" setting , makesure Enabled.

About the authentication error you mentioned,
Following Microsoft forum discussion seems to be useful:
