That agrees with my understanding. According to <http://ark.intel.com/Product.aspx?id=36500#specs>, there are some variants of the E7400 which do not support VT-x. These are distinguished by 'Ordering Code' and 'SPEC Code'; I assume one or both of these codes are shown on the processor packaging. Please check whether you have one of these variants.
