How do I find the BIOS settings? I'm trying to install a VM so I can run CAD programs for my work.

I am an engineering student and thus having the capability to utilize CAD programs is highly advantageous to me, so I talked to several of my friends who have Macbooks and they recommended using Parallel. After I installed the program and my Windows OS, it keeps giving me an error message saying that the hardware virtualization has been disabled in the BIOS settings. I cannot find the BIOS settings anywhere! How do I change this? Does anyone know?

There are no BIOS settings, because Macs don't have a BIOS. I don't use Parallels, but I assume it has simulated BIOS settings. You'd have to consult its documentation to find out how to change them.

  • How do I open the bios settings for a MSI760GMP34FX mainboard?

    I know this is a stupid question but I have never had to do this before in my life and I tried googling it and I couldn't find anything helpful.
    I think something may be wrong with the bios settings on my computer so I need to know how to open them up to check and change them but I have no idea how to do it and can't find any instructions.  I think it's different for different types of mainboards from what I can tell but I am not sure.
    My OS is Windows 7 Pro 64 bit if that makes any difference and my board is a MSI760GMP34FX mainboard.
    Sorry if this is a stupid question but I have no idea how to do this.
    Thank you for your time.

     
    Well thanks again.  Hitting delete once on start up worked like a charm and now my Bluray burner drive is working good as new.  I thought it had broken down and I would have to buy a new one but going into the Bios did the trick.
    You saved me $70, thanks a bunch.

  • How do I find the .iso file from my windows 7 install disk?

    I am trying to install windows 7 on my new macbook air. I have a copy of windows7 install disk but as there is no cd drive I am having difficulty. I cannot figure out how to find the .iso file to put on a usb in order to install it.
    Can anyone help please?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    You can only get Windows 7 on a ISO file if you purchased Windows 7 from the Microsoft Store as a download, so this option isn't available for you.
    In your case, I recommend you to get an external optical drive (any external optical drive will work) and install Windows from the DVD. Doing this, you will save headaches

  • How do I find the SID of an Oracle 8.0 install ?

    I have a Win NT that acts as the Domain in our LAN
    + 3 Win 98 boxes , that need to get to the Oracle
    database situated on the Win NT machine.
    I tried creating the service using Net8 Assistant
    on the Win98 machine from which I type this,
    then I noticed they asked me for the SID and Hostname
    of the Server.
    I knew the Hostname of the Server , but not the SID.
    So I went upto the server and checked for the init*.ora
    file . If my SID was LOOKBOSS , then I guess the init*.ora
    file would be named initLOOKBOSS.ora , but :
    I found 2 files : -
    o initorcl.ora
    o initseed.ora
    Both files being exact replicas of the other and each claiming
    to be the init.ora !
    I tried out some other utility (I do not re-collect the name) ,
    that said that I have only 1 hos t configured ...
    so where did this init-orcl thing come from ?
    Now I tried passing seed as the SID at my Win98 box and was
    scolded by Net8 Assistant which said that it could not connect.
    I also tried orcl as the SID .
    Now please can somebody please tell me how I can find out the SID
    from the Serer ?
    Regards,
    Shyam

    Hi Shyam,
    Go to the sqlplus session in the server itself, and cdonnect as system/manager. At the SQL prompt, select name from V$database. This is the name of the ORACLE S
    ID running on your machine. Ideally if you have opted for the default database installation while installing the product/database, the file name should be initorcl.ora and the SID would be orcl.
    Hope this sorts out your problem.
    Cheers.

    If you are looking for your Apple ID, go to FORGOT APPLE ID to find it.
    It is not a good idea to post your personal email address on a public forum. I will have the hosts edit it.

  • How to enter the BIOS settings on my Satellite L50-A-k4W?

    Help me pls!! How to enter the BIOS settings? I do not know, and Google does not help me =((

    At first you have to perform an complete shutdown.
    Here an HowTo:
    http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB2B03EY0002R01.htm
    The point is that Win 8 does not shut down the notebook but the unit performs hybrid shutdown to boot faster. So unit needs to be shut down in order to access the BIOS.
    Start notebook again and press F12 to enter boot menu. Thee you can find option for BIOS settings. You can also try with F2 at start up.

  • How do I find the iCloud icon to add to the dock

    How do I find the iCloud icon to add to the dock.  I believe this was on the dock when I first had the computer.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    iCloud is not an application, so it does not appear on the Dock or Applications folder. Instead, you can manage iCloud settings in System Preferences > iCloud.
    iCloud only appears as an application in Windows because of iCloud Control Panel

  • My back up from last Thursday on my iphone 4s is not showing up in my itunes. I deleted something today & I would like to restore to last week when it was on my phone. How do I find the backup on my pc, how do I move it to itunes to restore phone back to

    My back up from last Thursday on my iphone 4s is now showing up in my itunes. I deleted something today and I need it back desperately. I need to restore my phone back to last Thursday when the information was on my phone. How do I find the backup on my pc and once I find it how do I move it to itunes for me to restore my phone to that day?

    I wished I had known this before I said yes to using icloud. I guess those things will be lost and gone forever, since I do not want to lose my present settings and data. Also do not want to go through the hassle of backing up present, then resetting phone, then restoring oldest back up, then backing up oldest backup to pc, so I can safely backup selected items to my pc; then reset my phone again to restore latest back up. It would take way too much time and no guarantee.
    I backed up my phone to my pc, but have not checked it yet, so don't know if it worked.
    If I decide to quit using icloud (which will probably happen since backing up to external hard drive allows me to open backups) what will happen to my present data and settings? Will they just remain as they were without icloud, as they were before icloud? I'm scared to just delete it; not knowing what will happen. Also why is icloud now my outgoing mail server, when my web email was before I installed icloud and how do I restore my web email as my outgoing mail server. I am using yahoo/at&t for all my mail.
    What will happen to my contacts, notes, messages, voice memos, calendar info, alerts, etc., on my phone if I delete icloud?
