Please see this HP document entitled "BIOS Settings for the Angelica and Angelica2 Motherboards" for instructions on how to enter the BIOS and change the settings.

Opening the Computer Setup Utility

Use one of the following methods to open the Computer Setup Utility.

Turn on the computer and immediately press the F10 key repeatedly, about once every second, until the Computer Setup Utility opens.

Turn on the computer and immediately press the Escape key repeatedly, about once every second, until the Startup menu opens. Then press F10 .

To navigate the menus, choose menu screens by pressing the left or right arrow keys. Use the up or down arrow keys to move through the list of items on the menu screen. Press the Enter key to select an item and open a submenu. Then use the left and right arrow keys to modify the settings. Press the F10 key to save the changes and exit from a submenu, or press the Esc key to exit from a submenu without saving the changes

The virtualization technology option is located in the BIOS under the "Security Menu" > "System Security".

Angelica2 can only support one graphics card. Other than that it's not a bad motherboard. It supports the AM3+ CPUs: FX-4100, FX-6100, FX-8100, FX-8120, FX-8150. It doesn't has a PS/2 input, so you can't use older mice and keyboards with the PS/2 connection.
