Aurora R12, Intel VT-x

I work with Vm regular. Now I buy new PC (Alienware Aurora R12).

And... it doesn't support Intel VT-x

I think may be I am blind and read CPU specifications incorrectly. But if we open them https://ark.intel.com/content/www/us/en/ark/products/212254/intel-core-i9-11900f-processor-16m-cache-up-to-5-20-ghz.html

We could see

It has VT-x technology. But I can't turn on it, because there is no any settings in BIOS, where I can do it.

The BIOS version is last. I have all updates.

So I bought useless PC?

    Also, try turning off Intel Hyper V and checking again.  That sometimes blocks it from showing a check box there.

    What does task manager say, there may be no check mark because it is being used by another program.

    It should be enabled by default, I don't believe there is a switch in bios since around the Aurora R7/8.

    Same setup just with the KF cpu and am sure they are the same as far as that goes very odd. I am also on the 1.1.4 BIOS so we know it's not that.

    Try turning off Intel hyper V, that is what I was mostly thinking when I said another program may block it from showing a check box.

    It is enabled, as per your screenshot of your task manager.

    The issue must lie somewhere else, usually but not always it is because Microsoft virtualization is enabled.

     

    A good way to check is open up a command prompt and type in systeminfo

    Wait a few seconds until it is finished, and it should show your virtualization status at the very bottom of the output window as follows:

     

    Hyper-V Requirements: VM Monitor Mode Extensions: Yes

    Virtualization Enabled In Firmware: Yes
    Second Level Address Translation: Yes
    Data Execution Prevention Available: Yes
