But it worked fine on MX19.
VT-x is enabled and I installed 'virt-manager'

I attached an image, not sure if you were able to see it or if it worked or not.
I just attach it and then post the question right?
I also went and added it inline.

Hi,

Have you used Virtualization on this computer before? Often you need to set this specifically in the computers BIOS or UEFI setup Utility. It will be specific to the computer you have, what kind of BIOS it uses and also whether it is an Intel or AMD CPU.

It worked fine on MX19, then I clean installed MX21 and now this.
I checked BIOS and it's still enabled.
I installed 'virt-manager' but it that did nothing.

@PaulGureghian1 please provide your Quick System Information.

I haven't tried Boxes myself on MX-21, but this package is coming from Debian, so it should work without issue.

Something else that may help us is, try to launch Boxes from the terminal, and if there is any output please share that with us.
