Given equation is 

\left ( 1+m^{2} \right )x^{2}-2\left ( 1+3m \right )x+\left ( 1+8m \right )=0

given eq. has no real root

\Rightarrow D<0

\Rightarrow4\left ( 1+3m \right )^{2}-4\left ( 1+m^{2} \right )\left ( 1+8m \right )<0

\Rightarrow 4(1+6m+9m^2)-4(1+8m+m^2+8m^3)<0

\Rightarrow -8m(2m-1)^{2}<0

Infinite value of m satisfies this.
