Solve : Can't my BIOS use virtualization??

Answer»

Dear Computer HOPE Forum,

I have been AROUND your webchat for a while and learned a lot from it, so thanks for that already. Tho now it's time to ask some advice on your forums

Recently I've built my first RIG and I'm pretty happy about it other than the cable management which is pretty messy.. the only problem I'm having with it is that I can't seem to use any virtualization software. A friend of mine told me to look into the BIOS for the option to enable it but I can't seem to FIND any. Can you five me some advice about this please? I'll give detailed info with screenshots.

Motherboard: H87M-E (windows professional)

Thanks a lot for taking some of your time to help me.

If you open task manager it's process will have *32 at the end of the name. You have to use separate INSTALLATIONS (that is, the default is the 32-bit installer, the 64-bit installer will be x64 or something similar).What CPU are you using? Not all support the virtualisation extensions required.
