How to trick a computer into thinking VT-X is enabled

by Smith8154 Jan 4, 2014 11:39AM PST

I have a Dell Poweredge 2850 and after doing some research discovered that the CPU supports VT-X but the motherboard does not. I was wondering if there is any way to trick the server into thinking that VT-X is enabled.

Thanks.

It's been asked before. Try google on it and you find it's a BIOS thing. There are many discussions like http://stackoverflow.com/questions/20770494/how-to-enable-vt-x-amd-v-in-aspire-v5-122p-bios where a machine has to be coaxed into revealing it's advanced menu but I don't see this on the poweredge.
