HP ZBook 17 G3 Mobile Workstation

Hello,

 

I have a HP Zbook 17G3  E3-1535M v5 and I use Windows 10 Pro.

 

Windows 10 Pro comes with Hyper-V virtualization service which I would like to use. But it requires that I enable SLAT (second level address translation) which Intel calls EPT (extended page table) and VMT  which Intel calls hardware assisted virtualisation. The processor E3-1535M v5 is compatible for this requirement. I have confirmed this with Intel.

 

The software I wish to use states the following - 

  • Virtualization must be enabled in BIOS and CPU SLAT-capable. Typically, virtualization is enabled by default. This is different from having Hyper-V enabled. For more detail see Virtualization must be enabled in Troubleshooting.

Coreinfo and the Intel Processor Identification Utility both show the statuses as disabled 

 

The bios does not display an option to configure the EPT or VMT - Intel had mentioned that all CPUs are enabled and that OEMs then configure the CPU.  Why they have done this in this case I am unsure.

 

If you could assist me with enabling these settings I would be very grateful.
