    my sony vaio doesnt have an option to enable virtualization in bios either.
    but its possible to enable it by changing/hacking a bios switch

    some OEMS lock VT in their BIOS for some stupid reason. If your processor supports it then it is up to the OEM to build it into their board. If they do not then you are SOL. That is why you don't buy consumer/value level products all the components in them are crap and the best stuff is always disabled.

    Hi guys !

    I have an Intel Q9550 that supports virtualization based on the internet resource , I'm using an eVga Nforce 750i SLI 1 MB and I'm running windows XP Pro 32 bit.

    I fired up SecurAble and it says Hardware Virtualiztion Locked ON !

    I went to check up my BIOS and in the BIOS the virtualization was ENABLED !

    WOULD IT BE POSSIBLE TO INSTALL WINDOWS 7 Pro and RUN WINDOWS XP 32 bit MODE ?

    thanks

    WTF? You WANT It on, locked or otherwise. What you are seeing is what you WANT to see. Not sure where the confusion is.:confused:
