Have you tried running a virtual machine with VMWare Player or VirtualBox and forcing AMD-V to see if it isn't already enabled?

  • IdeaPad Flex 15D no virtualization option in BIOS 94CN07WW (AMD APU A6-5200)

    Lenovo IdeaPad Flex 15D (AMD APU A6-5200) does not have virtualization option in BIOS version 94CN07WW. What this means is if one wants to run for example Virtualbox, then one would only be able to vitualize a 32-bit operating system, instead of either a 32-bit or 64-bit operating system. However, a similar model Lenovo IdeaPad S415 Touch (AMD APU A6-5200) does have the SVM option in the BIOS to enable or disable virtualizing 64-bit operating systems. December 22, 2014 8:00AM CSTWhen I  called Lenovo technical support, I initially spoke with someone who sounded as if they were from the Philippines, which is fine if they are knowledgable, and their english is fluent. Unfortunately, when I explained the technical situation, he had no idea what I was talking about. After he checked with in Level 2 quite few times, he said that the motherboard doesn't support virtualization... So, I advised him that I've been in the IT industry for 10 years, and while admittedly I don't know everything about virtualization, I have some level of knowledge on the subject having worked in all positions from Level 1 Technical Support to Systems Engineer. Hence, I proceeded to explain how virtualization is a dependency of the CPU, not the motherboard. One would of course need to have a motherboard that is compatible with the CPU in order for the computer to work at all. However, one may buy a CPU without virtualization extensions and plug it into a motherboard, or one may buy the same CPU with virtualization extensions and plug it into this same motherboard. As well, I invited him to look at Intel or AMD's website for further information on this while we were on the phone so I could help clear up any questions he had on the matter. While he didn't appear to review either website, he checked in with Level 2 again, and suggested we check forums to see if a work around exists. I quickly explained there is no work around to this type of problem, and the resolution would be to put a request into engineering to have a BIOS update pushed out that allowed enabling/disabling SVM by default. After checking in with Level 2 once again, he said if it's not an option in the BIOS, then the computer doesn't support it. I advised while this statement is something I already knew (not to mention painfully obvious at this point), it's not a technical limitation of the hardware, as the CPU supports it. The root cause is that toggling SVM enabled/disabled wasn't designed in the BIOS (i.e. this needs a BIOS update to come out to fix this problem). We briefly talked about a warranty event, how from my past experiences sometimes when one submits a laptop to a vendor and gets it returned, it comes with a BIOS version that is later than originally submitted, or one that is not available for download from the vendor website. However, he wasn't really for this idea, as I didn't have a hardware fault per-say, and I wasn't interested in insisting one a warranty event as it was frankly a low probability event to have this outcome, and it wasn't what I wanted out of the conversation anyway. So, after he checked in with Level 2 again, he said he can call me back after he investigated some more. I advised him that a call back is useless if he is the one calling me back as we already know the problem, resolution, and who would need to address it. After he began to stutter, and make incomplete sentences that made no sense, he put me on hold to check in with Level 2 again (yes he checked in with them this many times). When he came back he claimed I said earlier in the conversation that the option to enable it was available so I should just go ahead and do that. Given that this guy frankly didn't know what I was talking about to begin wtih, and now is telling me something that never even happened in the conversation, I pretty much had enough of the lack of knowledge, and customer service I was receiving, so I asked to speak to either a supervisor or the next level of support. Thankfully he transferred me to his supervisor, who sounded like he wasn't from an outsourced call center, as when I explained the situation he understood me the first time, and spoke clear and articulate english. After a very brief discussion about what he was reading from Lenovo forums and a BBB complaint similar to my inquiry, we came to the conclusion that it would need to be a customer courtesy request to the engineering department to request the SVM option become available via a BIOS update. So, with my case number in hand, I said despite him not being able to promise me the outcome I desired, he at least got the issue in front of the right people, which I appreciated. Long story short, it would be just simply really awesome if Lenovo could push out a Happy Holidays BIOS update that would allow me to enable SVM on my IdeaPad Flex 15D.  Thanks for reading.

    I came across this issue a while back also. However, with the quickly-approaching release of Windows 10, there's another problem that I consider far more important (it is also related to the BIOS, go figure). There is no way to enable/disable Execute Disable Bit in the BIOS. Due to this, I have been unable to upgrade to the Windows 10 Insider Preview, and I fear that this will be the same case with the final release. This issue apparently affects lots of others as well. It is interesting to note that the Flex 15D drivers page no longer says that a BIOS update is not available for the laptop... It doesn't give any info about the BIOS. Get with it, Lenovo!

  • Bento works, but can't enable it

    I purchased Bento from iTunes store in 2012, still have receipt. After not using Bento for a while, I downloaded it again (http://help.filemaker.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/11182) and was able to use it, and open an old database with it, on my MBP running Yosemite. I was using it in trial mode though, because when you buy Bento from iTunes or Apple Store, you don't get a license key. Now my trial has expired, and I can't open the app. I know it's no longer supported by Filemaker, but since the app works on my system would be nice to use. Anyone know how I can enable the app?
    I can't find Bento in the Apple Store app now, I assume it's gone.
    Did you purchase Bento through the Mac App Store?  If so, then you will not have a license key, as Apple keeps track of your purchases.

  • HT204074 I need to authorize my new computer to play previous purchases from itunes, I have read the support but can not find store menu topic

    I am having a hard time authorizing my new computer for previous purchases on itunes.  The support suggestion to go to store menu and select authorize is not materializing anything even remotely similiar.  At the store I only see advertisement and topics at the bottom.  Can anyone guide me thru this, it really should be easier.

    If the computer's running Mac OS X, move the cursor to the very top of the computer's screen, click on Store, and choose Authorize this Computer.
    If the computer's running Windows, press the Alt and S keys and choose Authorize this Computer, or click here, follow the instructions, click on Store in the menu bar, and choose Authorize this Computer.

  • PXE-E61: media test failure on Portgege 3500 but can't enter the BIOS

    I canot enter my BIOS menu.
    I tried all the keys ( ESC, F1, F2, Delete..etc) but then i get message :" PXE-E61: media test failure, check cable
    PXE-M0F:exiting PXE ROM". I tried everything but i still cannot enter the BIOS menu.

    Turn the laptop On and hold ESC, then press F1 when prompted. Pressing F12 on power-up should give you a boot menu. (This is in the Users Manual)
    The PXE error means its trying to boot off the Network, because it cannot find an OS on the HDD.
    Test the HDD using a HDD test. The Advanced test in Hitachi DFT is good. (google is your friend)

  • I have an iMac running OS X 10.8.3 and have connected an Epson Workforce 2540 printed that is allegedly Airprint enabled. I can connect and print with a USB cable but can't connect via Airprint. My colleague running 10.7 can. Is this a feature of 10.8?

    I have an iMac running OS X 10.8.3 and have connected an Epson Workforce 2540 printed that is allegedly Airprint enabled. I can connect and print with a USB cable but can't connect via Airprint. My colleague running 10.7 can. Is this a feature of 10.8? Any ideas for a fix?

    iOS devices use AirPrint to connect to a supported printer. OS X will use Bonjour to locate and connect to the same printer.
    With the Epson connected to your wireless router, when you open Print & Scan and click the plus button to add, does the Epson appear in a small box with a heading of Nearby Printers?
    If not and a window appears showing Default, Fax, IP and Windows in the toolbar, do you see the Epson with the Default view selected?

  • TS2446 My Apple ID is disabled but I don't know why and I can't enable it again. What should I do?

    My Apple ID is disabled but I don't know why and I can't enable it again. When I try to download an App a message comes up that says "Your Apple ID has been Disabled" What should I do?

    Depending on why it's been disabled, you might be able to re-enable it via this page : http://appleid.apple.com, then 'reset your password'
    Or you might need to contact Apple : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page
    If it then works on your computer's iTunes but not your iPad then try logging out of your account on the iPad by tapping on the id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores on iOS 6) and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on it

  • How can I enable OpenGL in Photoshop? I already enable OpenCL, but I still can't open 3d obj

    How can I enable OpenGL in Photoshop? I already enable OpenCL, but I still can't open 3d obj

    If you have the latest updates for 10.6.8 then you have the most recent drivers available for you system.   You shouldn't have to download drivers from nVidia's site.  3D and OpenCL should be supported by that card, but I can't confirm until I have access to a system with that card (I have one in my office, but won't be there until Monday morning).  I'll check first thing Monday morning and update this thread with what I find.
    For now, try resetting your PS preferences:
    Resetting preferences returns OpenGL settings to their default status. Reset Photoshop preferences by pressing and holding Shift+Ctrl+Alt (Windows) or Shift+Option+Command (Mac OS) immediately after you start Photoshop. Click Yes when asked if you want to delete the Adobe Photoshop Settings File.

  • Can't enable Intel VT support in MS 7383

    Dear MSI community.
    I have a small question about enabling INTEL VT on my mainboard:
    I have Core2Quad q8200 processor and I would like to use Intel VT on MS 7383 V1.
    But i can't find how to enable it on my BIOS. My Bios version is 1.3.
    Is that possible? ... could not find any named feature in the BIOS for that.
    Thanks and regards
