I already updated my Bios to 1.29 but I still can't find the option to enable Virtualization Technology for my laptop. Anyone got an idea where I can enable it if allowed to do so?

    Some computers support virtualization that allows you to run more than one operating system on your computer. If your computer meets the hardware requirements below, you can configure Hyper-V to utilize software virtualization.

     

    Requirements:

    Windows 8 or 8.1 Professional or Enterprise only (windows shipped with your computer is multi language version)

    4 GB of RAM

    A 64-bit processor that can support Second Level Address Translation (SLAT). You can run a utility like Coreinfo to find out if SLAT is supported on your machine.

    If your system meets the above hardware requirements, use the following steps to to install or turn on Hyper-V.

     

    Press Windows key + W

    Type Features, then select Turn Windows Features on or off from the list of search results.

    Check the box next to Hyper-V, then click OK to enable this feature.

    You should now have a Hyper-V application listed with your Windows Apps

     

    Windows will display an error message if your hardware does not meet the minimum requirements for virtualization.

    Hi! I saw your answer to another post elsewhere on the discussion board. However I couldn't find the Hyper-V option from the list that was given.

    Since the Hyper-V option is not listed there is no option to enable virtualization for this model.
