<\/span><\/h3>\nFor Intel processors, the setting to enable it, you can usually find in the CPU Configuration BIOS.<\/p>\n
Broadly speaking, the steps are not much different. Whether it’s for the old processor, as well as the latest.<\/p>\n
How to Turn on Intel Virtualization Technology :<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n- First, please turn on your computer or laptop first.<\/li>\n
- Click the F11, F2, or ESC key, to enter the BIOS.<\/li>\n
- If so, find and open the Advanced \/ CPU Configuration menu.<\/li>\n
- Then, find and enable the Intel Virtualization Technology feature (change the mode to Enabled ).<\/li>\n
- Go to the Exit tab, then select Save Changes and Exit.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
Oh yes, this Intel has a hyperthreading feature too. So please enable it as well to improve performance.<\/p>\n
<\/span>#2. How to Enable AMD Virtualization Technology<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\nBesides Intel, I’ve also used AMD processors, from low-end to high-end ones.<\/p>\n
Usually, there is a difference in the mention of the term in the BIOS for certain versions of AMD processors. But broadly speaking, the steps are more or less like this:<\/p>\n
How to Turn on AMD Virtualization Technology<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n- As usual, turn on your computer or laptop first.<\/li>\n
- Press the F2, F11, ESC (or other) keys to enter the BIOS.<\/li>\n
- Next, go to the CPU Configuration menu.<\/li>\n
- Then, please search for SVM mode settings.<\/li>\n
- Set it to Enabled so that VT is active.<\/li>\n
- Finally, please select Save and Changes to save the BIOS settings.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
In general, the name is SVM mode. However, sometimes the name can also be:<\/p>\n
\n- AMD Virtualization.<\/li>\n
- AMD-V.<\/li>\n
- AMD-VT.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
And others. Usually, on the right, there is a description column. Well, you can see it there.<\/p>\n
<\/span>#3. If Without Entering the BIOS? Can it?<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\nSome of us have asked, here. If you don’t enter the BIOS, can you do it or not?<\/p>\n
The answer is, maybe you can. But at least only for certain versions of the processor.<\/p>\n
Why? Because this VT setting can generally only be used when the computer finishes restarting so that the features can run stably.<\/p>\n
Anyway, that’s it, hehe. So it doesn’t matter, you want to use Windows 7, Windows 8, or Windows 10.<\/p>\n
<\/span>How to Find Out if the Processor Supports VT or Not<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\nSo, what if the VT setting doesn’t exist? Or is there a certain notification that VT can’t be activated?<\/p>\n
If you find this condition, then the cause is one, namely the possibility that your processor does not support the feature.<\/p>\n
If I have a separate way to check it:<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/span>1. Use CPU-Z<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n![\"Use](\"https:\/\/techmaina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Use-CPU-Z.png\" "\\"Use")
<\/p>\n
I usually use CPU-Z to check the processor specs.<\/p>\n
Well, the information displayed here is very complete, so we can know whether a processor already supports the VT feature or not.<\/p>\n
To use it like this:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n- Please download the CPU-Z application first at https:\/\/www.cpuid.com\/softwares\/cpu-z.html.<\/li>\n
- If so, please install as usual.<\/li>\n
- After that, open the application.<\/li>\n
- Then check the Instruction column, make sure there is AMD-V or Intel-V.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
If there is, it means that the processor already supports the virtualization feature.<\/p>\n
<\/span>2. Use LeoMoon CPU-V<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n![\"Use](\"https:\/\/techmaina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Use-LeoMoon-CPU-V.png\" "\\"Use")
<\/p>\n
Next, use LeoMoon CPU-V.<\/p>\n
For this application, the specific use is only to find out if a processor has support for virtualization or not.<\/p>\n
How to use it like this:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n- Please download the LeoMoon CPU-V application.<\/li>\n
- Extract using WinRAR.<\/li>\n
- Open the app.<\/li>\n
- Check the Supported column. There will be a checkmark there.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
The checkmark means that the processor already supports the virtualization feature.<\/p>\n
<\/span>3. Using CMD<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n![\"Using](\"https:\/\/techmaina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Using-CMD.png\" "\\"Using")
<\/p>\n
Can also use CMD. The method is very simple:<\/p>\n
\n- Please open CMD first.<\/li>\n
- Then type systeminfo.<\/li>\n
- Press Enter.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
Later, just check it in the Virtualization Enabled in Firmware section.<\/p>\n
<\/span>How to Know Virtualization is Active or Not<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\nFor myself, frankly, when I activate the virtualization feature in the BIOS, I rarely check again whether the feature is running or not.<\/p>\n
But yeah, if you’re curious, you can also find out. Use this method:<\/p>\n
\n- Click the Ctrl + Alt + Del key .<\/li>\n
- Then, select Task Manager.<\/li>\n
- After that, open the Performance column.<\/li>\n
- Check the Virtualization column.<\/li>\n
- If Enabled, it means that the VT feature is already active.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
![\"How](\"https:\/\/techmaina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/How-to-Know-Virtualization-is-Active-or-Not.png\" "\\"How")
<\/p>\n
It’s easy?<\/p>\n
Note: If VT is already active, try checking the settings in the emulator you are using.\u00a0Sometimes it has to be activated there too.<\/p>\n
<\/span>The Final Word<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\nThat’s a little discussion about how to activate the virtualization feature in Windows.<\/p>\n
Actually, it doesn’t have to be Windows, other operating systems such as macOS or Linux can also do it.<\/p>\n
I think this discussion is quite complete. But if anyone is still curious, or wants to share about this topic, you can discuss it through the comments column below.<\/p>\n
