Often, this feature is disabled by default in BIOS/UEFI. If your computer is not new, it will have BIOS, and if your PC or laptop is a new one – it will have UEFI. For starters, you need to access BIOS. Usually, it can be done by pressing one of these buttons - ESC, F2, Delete, F10, F12, or others. When you turn on the computer, press one of the buttons to have BIOS options displayed on the screen. BIOS/UEFI options may be arranged in different ways. Their actual appearance depends on the motherboard model, CPU type, and hardware manufacturer. For a device with UEFI, find the tab Advanced Mode. Then jump to Advanced and choose SVM Mode. However, this option may have a different name (for example, Secure Virtual Machine or AMD-V, in the case of an AMD processor). Change the value to Enabled. Jump to the tab Save & Exit - Save Changes and Exit. If you have a computer with a GIGABYTE motherboard and an AMD Ryzen CPU, the UEFI interface will look differently. At first, select Advanced Frequency Settings – Advanced CPU Core Settings. After that, on the tab M.I.T. find an item SVM Mode and select Enabled. Now open the tab Chipset. Find the item called IOMMU, and select Enabled. Press F10 – Yes to save the settings and exit. This is how you can enable virtualization in BIOS on a PC with an AMD processor: Open the tab Advanced at the top. Select CPU Configuration. Go to Secure Virtual Machin Mode and press Enter. Change the value to Enabled. Press F10 to save the settings and restart the computer. Also, you may see the tab Configuration. Look there to find AMD SVM Support, and change its value to Enabled. In case of Intel processors, the required option may be called Intel Virtualization Technology, Intel VT-x, Virtualization Extensions, Vanderpool. Find it and enable hardware virtualization.
