Once you've gone through these steps, is there a way to check that your work was saved? or that it's working properly?

Thanks,

Same thing happened to me. Did you ever figure it out? I enabled it in Bios in startup, and then when I went to the program features there is no Hyper-V option to select. PLEASE HELP!

Hello@munleyej,

Thanks for using the HP Forums. One Stop for all sort of solutions for your HP Products.

I have read your post and understand that you need assistance in enabling the Virtualization on the PC. Is that, right? I will be glad to help you.

I was able to find an article from Microsoft which helps you enable the virtualization and use it efficiently.

Please use the link below and check if that helps you.

This should solve the issue.  Let me know for more solution.

Ok, in the instructions near the end it said "The other changes will require Windows 8 Pro or higher and also to enable the function under Turn Windows Features On or Off."  What does this mean?  I have Windows 7 Home Premium OA.  Will this mess up my computer to make these changes - enabling Virtualization Technology?  I'm doing it for BlueStacks program making my computer a tablet.

I commented not long ago.  I have an HP Pavilion g series with Windows 7 Home Premium software.  How will enabling virtualization technology affect it?

Thank you for the update,

I appreciate your time and efforts,

I reviewed your previous comment and the current one only to find out that all you need is details about "blue stacks" to use your tablet on your notebook, isn't that right?

Also, to answer your question about what the phrase "about the requirement of windows 8 pro or higher" means is that the virtualization of windows needs a better OS than the windows 7 in order for it to work.

That said, HP Doesn't recommend upgrading or downgrading the OS and I wouldn't suggest you go through the trouble of getting a retail version of the windows instead of the OEM (HP supplied OS) currently installed, if you've been using a retail version all this while instead of the OEM, upgrading to win8 is your call.

Besides, Bluestacks is an application and works independently without the need of any virtualization as far as I know, however, since Bluestacks is a 3rd party program and HP Doesn't support it, I recommend you contact them for further information about installing and using it.

Let me know how that pans out,

Feel free to post your query for any other assistance as well,

It's been a pleasure interacting with you and I hope you have a good day ahead.

Thank you for your advice.  The Blustacks program keeps suggesting that I enable virtualization and that's why I have looked into it.  The program Blustacks has not been working very well and I suspected that notification was going to improve it... who knows.  I am about to delete the program.

Thank you for the update,

I appreciate your time and efforts,

I hope my advise was useful as that's the best answer for your concern through HP,

The best thing you could do, is to check with a local tech or the Bluestack support that may be able to help resolve your concerns using 3rd party Softwares.
