It shipped in July 2011 in the U.S.A. and came with Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 64-bit.
It also came with an Intel Pentium B 940 2.00 GHz processor and 4 GB of DDR3 RAM.
How exactly did you upgrade that laptop from Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 64-bit to Windows 10 Pro 64-bit?
It should've upgraded to Windows 10 Home 64-bit.
Why does it have only 2 GB of RAM when it originally came with 4 GB of RAM?

Sorry I had made a mistake, it is 4 gb of ram. As for why it is windows 10 pro, I'm not entirely sure, I had lent it to a friend for a while and he went and upgraded it to 10 proAccording to those service tag and express service code numbers, you have this Dell Inspiron 14R N4110 laptop.

Windows 7 Home Premium will upgrade to Windows 10 Home and Windows 7 Professional will upgrade to Windows 10 Pro.As for why it is windows 10 pro, I'm not entirely sure, I had lent it to a friend for a while and he went and upgraded it to 10 pro
Windows 7 Home Premium will not upgrade to Windows 10 Pro, so your "friend" apparently did something which is questionable.
That may explain why you're having issues with VirtualBox.

So basically I would have to roll back to 7? Also I just looked up processor and it say that that my processor does not have the ability to use intel Virtualization technology . My BIOS just said virtualization. Is there a difference?Windows 7 Home Premium will upgrade to Windows 10 Home and Windows 7 Professional will upgrade to Windows 10 Pro.

I'm not familiar with what Intel virtualization technology does, so I can't comment on it.
I still question the legitimacy of the Windows 10 Pro 64-bit operating system which you say your "friend" installed.

You are correct that it's the processor's fault, it's an entry level consumer processor and doesn't support support VT-x. The BIOS may support it, if paired with a compatible processor.
You may want to try VMWare Player, I think the older versions do not require VT-x for 64-bit guest support, not sure if that's correct or if those old version would work with Windows 10.
With 2GB of RAM you barely have enough for your host O/S let alone running a guest O/S.
