Jürgen,

it seems as if your platform is not HVM enabled or HVM suitable.

Try this to check if Xen is able to detect HVM support:

xm dmesg | grep -i vmx

you should get something like "VMXON is done"

Otherwise please check this page to see if your platform is able to 
support what you want to do:

I don't have an AMD-based machine so I don't know what your bios looks 
like. Try to find "SVM" instead of HVM.
Bye,
Andrej
