New processor

For my desktop pc, I just bought a new processor, my current processor doesn’t support Intel VT. A few monts ago I bought a new pc based on the Tweakers.net Best-Buy Guide (Dutch site for ICT people, deep technical). My processor was an Intel Core 2 Duo E5200, which doenst support Intel VT.I’m using VMware Workstation, and with that I can’t run 64 bits hardware (all new server software is only 64 bit. Like Windows Server 2008 R2 and Exchange 2007 R2 for example). I’m a Microsoft geek, thus I wan’t test, you got my frustration? I now bought a Intel Core 2 Quad Core Q9650, which I need to replace next weekend. By the way, that will be my first time replacing a processor! Tips are welcome (just post a comment).
