Product: Pavilion p6 2020chm
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

So my problems is, after a graphic card upgrade (replaced the GT520 with a GT710), i can't enter my bios anymore.

When i boot i see the splash screen and if i press esc i see a screen with all the specs.

However when i boot and don't press anything it wont boot windows.

When i boot and press escape, then wait a bit, a screen with a blinking cursor appears and if i wait another few seconds i can press enter and it'll continue to boot to windows. 

i tried to update the bios with firmware from the official hp site that should fit my motherboard but i think that didn't work (as the behaviour didn't change and i didn't really show any sucess message or something like that).

I also cleared the CMOS by taking the battery out for 10 minutes.

The real problem now is, how can i change the VT-X setting? I want to run a 64bit VM.

Hi:

 

I would remove the video card, use the onboard graphics so you can boot into the BIOS, and then you will find the VT setting as pictured below.
