Thank you for taking the time to create this issue, I am curious have you tried the advise in the minikube output ?

Advice: In some environments, this message is incorrect. Try 'minikube start --no-vtx-check'

also could you provide more information, are you trying to run minikube inside a VM? if so i recommend using --vm-driver=none

Using GUI just enable VT-X/AMD-V in your virtual box this will resolve your problem as it did to me

how to enable AMD-V in a machine I ssh-ed into. this is an aws ec2 machine.

[tstromberg]

For AWS2 EC2 or other virtual instances, please use `--driver=docker`.
