Hi Xonar, [h=4]Intel® Virtualization Technology (VT-x)[/h] Intel® Virtualization Technology (VT-x) allows one hardware platform to function as multiple “virtual” platforms. It offers improved manageability by limiting downtime and maintaining productivity by isolating computing activities into separate partitions. [h=4]Intel® Virtualization Technology for Directed I/O (VT-d)[/h] Intel® Virtualization Technology for Directed I/O (VT-d) continues from the existing support for IA-32 (VT-x) and Itanium® processor (VT-i) virtualization adding new support for I/O-device virtualization. Intel VT-d can help end users improve security and reliability of the systems and also improve performance of I/O devices in virtualized environments. [h=4]Intel® VT-x with Extended Page Tables (EPT)[/h] Intel® VT-x with Extended Page Tables (EPT), also known as Second Level Address Translation (SLAT), provides acceleration for memory intensive virtualized applications. Extended Page Tables in Intel® Virtualization Technology platforms reduces the memory and power overhead costs and increases battery life through hardware optimization of page table management. VT must be enabled in the host system BIOS. The feature may be named VT, Vanderpool Technology, Virtualization Technology, VMX, or Virtual Machine Extensions. Often, you find this setting under a Security screen in the BIOS. The location of this setting varies depending on the system vendor. Hopefully the new unlock will do the trick, thanks for your help

I purchased my laptop from an OEM (Cyberpower) this was the original information reported by the "Intel CPU ID tool" I want to run VMware 8.0 with 64 bit OS support and need VT -x to be enabled, I have flashed the White book 1762 unlocked bios and it has installed fine the only thing I changed in the BIOS was the RAID option back to AHCI and I did notice the VT support was enabled, after rebooting I reran the Intel ID tool and it is still reporting VT -x as being off? Is there something else I need to change? or is this not supported ********************************* Mainboard: MS-1762 PCB Version: REV:1.0 Intel® Processor Identification Utility Version: 4.50.20120413 Time Stamp: 2012/08/16 15:10:57 Operating System: 6.1-7601-Service Pack 1 Number of processors in system: 1 Current processor: #1 Active cores per processor: 4 Disabled cores per processor: 0 Processor Name: Intel® Core i7-3920XM Extreme Edition CPU @ 2.90GHz Type: 0 Family: 6 Model: 3A Stepping: 9 Revision: 12 Maximum CPUID Level: D L1 Instruction Cache: 4 x 32 KB L1 Data Cache: 4 x 32 KB L2 Cache: 4 x 256 KB L3 Cache: 8 MB Packaging: µPGA/BGA Enhanced Intel SpeedStep® Technology: Yes MMX: Yes Intel® SSE: Yes Intel® SSE2: Yes Intel® SSE3: Yes Intel® SSE4: Yes Intel® AES-NI: Yes Intel® AVX: Yes Enhanced Halt State: Yes Execute Disable Bit: Yes Intel® Hyper-Threading Technology: Yes Intel® 64 Architecture: Yes Intel® Virtualization Technology: No Intel® VT-x with Extended Page Tables: No System Graphics: Intel® HD Graphics 4000 Expected Processor Frequency: 2.90 GHz Reported Processor Frequency: 3.59 GHz Expected System Bus Frequency: 100 MHz Reported System Bus Frequency: 100 MHz **************************************** BIOS Version: E1762IMS.10M BIOS Date: 7/6/2012 EC-FW Version:
