Some of the early implementations  of "V" on AMD chips did not handle virtualization correctly.  Your laptop is old and may have one of them.  I am only familiar with VMware as it is used by many BOINC applications and do not know of any other V applications.

AMD-V  can easily be enabled in the BIOS but not sure how useful it would be on your laptop.  Miners disable VT as it slows their systems down.

I assume you can run 32bit Linux natively. What are you trying to do?

You mean to say that I can't enable it on my version?

I do not have your system and have no idea what the BIOS options are.  I tried looking up your product number NB163UA#ABA here and the site claimed it was invalid number which is not correct.  Do you know what type of CPU you have?  

If your notebook has intel core 2 duo then  the cpu supports virtualization.  

You will have to boot up into the BIOS setup and look around for something called "V", "V-T" or "AMD-V" and enable it as the default is (usually) to turn it off.  There may  be more than 1 place in the BIOS that needs to be enabled before it works.

There are tools to see if virtualization is present.  Not sure if the following is applicable to windows 7

CPU-z can tell what the CPU is and if you see "VT-x'" as an "intel" instruction then  the chip supports it.  I do not have AMD cpu systems anymore so do not know what they call it.
