Enabling intel virtualization (VT-X) without optio

问题:

Sorry if the question is already answered, but I haven't found answer for my particular situation, that is a little different.

I'm installing all the tools necessary for android programming. I have created an android virtual device, but the problem come installing intel hardware acceleration (HAXM), the installer say to me I need activate VT-x and it seems that this tool only can be activated in BIOS, but my BIOS is InsydeH20 rev 3.5 and the option doesn't appear anywhere.

What can I do? How can I activate VT-x without BIOS?

My processor is intel i7 2630qm, I have check in the intel page if my processor is compatible with VT-x and yes it is.

Thank you very much!!

You can run some bcedit commands from the command line to set ND Bit and VT
bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype off
bcdedit /set nx AlwaysOn
Also do the install from https://software.intel.com/en-us/android/articles/intel-hardware-accelerated-execution-manager
If you're using Avast, disable "Enable hardware-assisted virtualization" under: Settings > Troubleshooting. Restart the PC and try to run the HAXM installation again

(instead of using the one downloaded through

I looked and looked in the BIOS but couldn't find a virtualization entry, so then I searched and read for many hours, finally finding this post.

The other answer didn't work for me so just before posting a comment (that I figured would not be seen for a year or two) I booted into my BIOS once more and thought, since I also have InsydeH20, I would confirm that there is no entry there. Low and behold I had overlooked the tiny menu bar at the top. Under the 3rd option (System Configuration) I finally stumbled on the entry I was looking for:

virtualization  <disabled>

After changing that to enabled and rebooting I was finally able to see the 64-bit options in VirtualBox.

My computer:

  • HP Pavillion M7
  • i7-3610QM
  • 8GB RAM
  • BIOS=InsydeH20
  • Win 10 Home

I should note, virtualization still shows disabled in the performance tab of the task manager, but Virtualbox works just fine.
