Could I Enable Virtualization SVM Mode In BIOS AMD Ryzen 3 HP 14-DK0599SA

[BanburyWalsh]

Can I enable all I need to install virtual machines on this laptop?

https://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c06508151.pdf

Windows 10 Home |  AMD Ryzen 3 3200U Processor | RAM: 4 GB |  Storage: 128 GB SSD

Is SVM in there? Can legacy bios be upgraded to a new mode where I can find SVM? Help me out, please. I'm looking to buy one.

Hi @BanburyWalsh,

Enabling virtualization on your HP 14-dk0599sa laptop with an AMD Ryzen 3 processor should be possible as most modern AMD processors support virtualization through SVM (Secure Virtual Machine) or AMD-V. However, whether it is enabled or configurable depends on the BIOS settings of your specific laptop.
