m15, Gaming Laptop, VT-x/VT-d support?
Hello,
I'm buying Dell Alienware m15 Gaming Laptop with CPU type Intel Core i7-8750H. I need to make sure that it supports Virtualization Technology (VT-x/VT-d) before buying it. So anyone can support and provide link for the supported features?
Thanks.

I bought the m15 a couple of months ago.I downloaded virtual box to install some virtual machines but end up figuring out that the bios does not show the option for virtualisation.I have the 1.6.2 version of BIOS installed.Any updates about when this will be added ?

Welcome to the Dell Community @kostaskapas
Did you turn off Hyper-v in the BIOS???
Look here.

Thanks for the response.
I turned off Hyper V by turning the corresponding windows feature off.
I also run the command successfully from the other post but no lack for the Linux Virtual Machine.
From what i checked in the BIOS settings i cant see any Hyper-V setting.
Is there a setting?

Since Dell does not publish "BIOS Simulators" for their computers I would have to check and see what models I have at work and see what I can find then.
I will check in the morning.

While trying to launch Android Emulator i had the same issue with VT - it was greyed out (disabled).
Had to uninstall Hyper-V and reboot the machine. After reboot i had both options (screenshot) available.
Solution fixed the issue, still though - is there possibility to have Hyper-V installed and disabled somehow, so VT options will be available for any other applications (while Hyper-V is not running/active)?
Thanks for fix,
Thanks for reply in advance.
