How to enable VT-x

[alan32]

Hi, my notebook (Pavilion Gaming Notebook) has an intel i7-6700HQ.

I have enabled virtualization in the bios.

However, when I run the INtel Hardware Execution Manager Setup .exe it says 'This computer does not support Intel Virtualization Technology (VT-x).'

What else do I have to do to enable this on my computer?

Thanks.

Hi, for anyone else, I've found the solution.

In control panel - turn windows features on or off, I had to disable Hyper-V as it stops any other virtualization working.
