So here is my situation. I have this old dv6200 HP Pavilion with T2060. I need to enable virtualization on this thing, but I'm not having any luck.
ark.intel.com says my processor supports VT-x.
One of the older bioses available on the HP site (F.06) says this:
"Adds "Intel Virtualization Technology Enable/Disable" item to the BIOS Setup menu."
But it is not there. I downloaded the PBE and on the emulated bios it is there. I even tried messing up with templat0.rom, rebuild the bios and flash it. No luck. Bricked it twice and had to use crisis to recover ( the beeps are very annoying ).
What else can I try? I would appreciate it if some experts here could look into it. At least give me a reason why I'm SOL on this one and then I'd stop trying.
Thanks.
P.S: The latest BIOS version I'm using is F.2E
