HP Omen 17-W209NS
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I have just bought a new a HP Omen 17-W209NS, built-in with an intel core i7 - 7700 HQ, despite the laptop has only the MS-DOS operative systema and I need to install the new window 10, before that, I have many questions about virtualization with the most popular virtualization software that it's the vmware workstation, I have many vmware images for differents applications and operative systems and I need to continue to use them, I have read some forum that talk about the software lock of the intel kaby lake (7th generation) processors regarding to virtualization works and dual boot functionality (for example windows 10 and windows 7).
Could anybody tell me about the real situation about intel 7th CPU and virtualization+dual boot with windows seven?
I need to know that the HP Omen 17-W209NS is enought for my vmware pro 12 before install the windows 10

Thank you in advanced
