Enable Intel Virtualization Technology on HP ProBook 6570b

[enzo50]

I try to install Android Studio on that notebook and during installation the following message arise:

"Filed to install HAXM. For detailed check the installation log ..."

Looking in the installation log file, I find that message: "This computer meets the requirements for HAXM, but Intel Virtualization tecnology (VT-x) is not turned on. HAXM cannot be installed until VT-x is enabled"

Someone can help me. Thanks

Solution:

(I am using the most recent BIOS F.27)

Yay! It looks like I figured it out. So if you have not set up any BIOS admin accounts on your laptop do this:

On boot, hit F10 to enter BIOS setup

It will ask you if you would like to log on as guest - say yes

Set a password for the BIOS Admin - If you are using HP ProtectTools, the accounts in BIOS are standard users and not BIOS admins, so a LOT of the options are greyed out

Go to the option that was unavailable before under Device Configuration - Virtualization and check the box

Save changes

Exit

There is no need to uninstall HP ProtectTools  🙂

Hi

I made many attemps for solve my problem:

   1) I tryed to install the application as Administrator

   2) I set a pwd in Bios (and now I cannot reset it), for changing the VTx setting from "View" to "Change" in "System Config", and then i repeat the installation as admin.

In all attemps the result was the same error message.

I looking on the web for documentation about the Bios setting but i find nothing.

I hope to have other suggestion .

Thanks in advance. Regards
