If you do not see it as available in BIOS then the feature to enable it  is not there. I l perused the available BIOS updates and there are none that add that capability.This is something very commonly found in manufactured PCs. 

 

I looked into the BIOS simulator for this model and I also do not see it. That was for a pre-production BIOS.

Re: Cann't enable the virtualization technology on the BIOS

Hi,

 

I found this thread when searching for how to enable virtualization technology on a HP Compaq 8200 Elite CMT PC with J-1 v02.15 System BIOS. I was wondering if there is any way currently to enable this feature or does the response in the previous message still apply?

 

Thanks in advance!

Re: Cann't enable the virtualization technology on the BIOS

you can fix it by:

 

How to enable VTx and VTd on the HP Compaq 8200 or similar PC?

 
To run Oracle VM Virtual Box / VMware machines on 64-bit host there is a need to enable Virtualization Technology (VTx) and Virtualization Technology Directed I/O (VTd).

Usually these setting are disabled on the level of BIOS.

To enable VTx and VTd you have to change corresponding settings in the BIOS.

Here is an example how to do it for HP Compaq 8200 or similar PC:

1. Start the machine.
2. Press F10 to enter BIOS.
3. Security-> System Security
4. Enable Virtualization Technology (VTx) and Virtualization Technology Directed I/O (VTd).
5. Save and restart the machine.
