Hardware virtualization enabled but not working in HP Pavilion p6

I've got an HP Pavilion p6 series (Model no. p6-2003es), with an up-to-date v7.15 BIOS, and I'm unable to use hardware virtualization.
I've enabled Virtualization in the BIOS under System Security, pressed F10 and saved the changes as per the usual procedure when modifying BIOS settings. However, when trying to run virtualization software (Virtualbox in this case), I get a warning notice stating that processor supports virtualization, but it's not enabled.
This seems to be the case: the feature is supported, but the BIOS does not seem to change the setting and enable it. I've tested it under 2 different OSs, with the same result:
Under the original Windows 7 64-bit, I've ran the Microsoft HAV Detection Tool, which tells me that hardware virtualization is not enabled.
Under Ubuntu 12.04, I've ran the rdmsr tool, which allowed me to read the AMD MSR (Model Specific Register) bits concerned with virtualization, and confirmed that they are not enabled.
I suspect that this is a BIOS issue (i.e. it's not setting the bits required to enable virtualization), but after a search on the forums it strikes me that no one has reported it yet, so any help, comments or workaround for this issue will be really welcome.
Thanks!

Hi MattNC79,
If you search this forum for the following tags you might find a solution as there are many for virtualization issues.
VT, VTx, VTd, Hyper-v, virtualization
HP internal has indicated the virtualization is not supported consumer level PC.  It's up to the individual to make it work, if it is possible,  with perhaps the volunteers on this forum as HP has no official presence on this forum.

  • Back to my mac - iCloud enabled, but not working

    Last year I made very regular use of Back to My Mac.  Time and again I had no problems using my Mac Book Pro and connecting to my Mac Pro back home - did this from all over the place.
    Then last month, my DSL router died and I had to upgrade.   The Netgear switch I had used stopped letting Back to My Mac work - turned out there was a glitch and I was one of the few who had a working unit, but not that it had tanked I could not get it back.  All systems would get an error when trying to enable Back To My Mac instructing me to review my settings, enable UPnp, etc...  
    So now I have a new Netgear R6300 and my MiniMac, Mac Pro and Mac Book Pro all can have Back to My Mac checked without an error showing up.  Can uncheck and re-check and the spinning wheel does it's thing and the box shows properly with no error.   Great - but apparently not really.   All these systems are in the same network, so of course they can see each other from within my network - no need for Back To My Mac at all.
    But as soon as I try and connect from outside my network I can't.   The Netgear R6300 provides a guest wireless network (that can't see or share the home network), so I can grab another IP address and effectively be outside my home with the Mac Book Pro.   Again, no error when I look at iCloud - and I can uncheck and recheck the Back to My Mac box and the handshaking necessary seems to be fine - but I do not get my home systems appearing in the Finder Shared list as they once did.
    The systems in my house can't see the Mac Book Pro either.
    As I have a group of static IP addresses from Centurylink I can use a fireware adapter and directly connect a network cable to the M1000 DSL modem - and directly pull one of my other IP addresses for the Mac Book Pro and have it completely out from under the Netgear R6300.   But the situation is the same - the Mac Pro and Mini Mac both appear to be configuered for Back to My Mac (can check, un-check and recheck without an error), but they can't see the Mac Book Pro.   Likewise the Mac Book Pro appears properly set for Back To My Mac - but it can't see either the Mac Pro or the Mini Mac.
    It makes no difference whether I enable the Centurylink M1000 DSL firewall or have it disabled.   UPnP is activated on the Netgear R6300, and if I turn it off I get an error when trying to set up Back to My Mac with any system funneling through the R6300 that the connection can't be made and I should check things like UPnP.    So when it is enabled there certainly seems to be at least some sort of semi proper handshaking going on.
    For diagnostic purposes only, I have stretched a really long Cat 6 cable accross the room and plugged the Mac Pro directly into the M1000 DSL too - pulling yet another static IP from my assigned block.  Now the Mac Book Pro and the Mac Pro can see each other via Back to My Mac - but neither can see the Mini Mac, and it of coruse can't see either of them.
    I am not wedded to Netgear, but I have had lousy luck with Linksys and Asus - the Asus.  The Mini Mac is a server (web and email) and Asus would not properly route mail to the Mini Mac and their Tech support was both difficult to reach and unable to explain why, just go try another.   The Linksis EA6500 was dead out of the box, and again Tech support suggested to just go get another one.   Asus was truly horrible to work with, but I would try another Linksis - but I have had flakey history with Belkin and Linksis which is why I went to Netgear.  
    So I know that the Centurylink M1000 does not appear to be the issue as devices connected directly to it can enjoy Back to My Mac.   I know that the Netgear R6300 appears to be working but clearly there must be something wrong somewhere.
    I don't seem to be caught in a double NAT issue, and I don't have extreme firewall issues in play.   Much as I would like and intend to put stiffer rules in place, right now I just want to get thigns working.
    Clearly I am missing something.  Suggestions - even for a different router know to be working in a small but robust network with cable and wireless would be most welcome.   All three systems are running OS X 10.8.3 - the Mini Mac also running server.  Both the Netgear R3600 and the Centurylink M1000 have the latest firmware.
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Is the Extreme in bridge or router mode.. most people are finding it has to be in router mode to work although I don't think that is specific in the instructions..
    You should not need to access the extreme to get into the Mac though.. do you have a hard disk on the AE you are trying to access??

  • OpenGL Enabled, but not working (Photoshop CS4)

    I have having a weird problem with Photoshop CS4. First of all, let me give off the specs.
    OS: Windows 7 64 bit
    Graphics Card: AMD Radeon HD 7570 (Driver Version 8.960.11.1000, with latest Catalyst Control Center)
    I use Photoshop CS4 for freelance work, and one of the tools I like to use is the Rotate tool. When I first got my desktop and installed Photoshop, everything worked fine. However, recently I was forced to perform and factory restore on my desktop thanks to a virus.
    Today I started working on something and when I tried using the Rotate tool, it was not working (I go that error window saying it wasn't enabled). I checked the OpenGL settings to see it was enabled. Confused, I restarted Photoshop and tried again with no luck.
    This turned into a search around the internet to see just what is going on, but the only thing I could find was suggesting updating drivers for my graphics card and Adobe, which I have tried with no success. I have found out that some people were having the same trouble as me, but what makes my case odd is that it was working fine before the factory restore.
    Any help would be great.

    Because of ATI's plethora of version information I'm not really sure what Catalyst release your 8.960.11.1000 driver comes from, but I do know that Catalyst 12.4 has some problems working with later versions of Photoshop.  Perhaps Photoshop CS4 isn't too happy with it either.
    The most recent Catalyst release that was known to be good with Photoshop was 12.2 (though it shows up as 12.3 in the status display).  It can be found here:  
    http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/windows/previous/Pages/radeonaiw_vista64.aspx
    Downgrading drivers is a bit more tricky than upgrading them - you have to fully remove the current ones first, then install the older set.

  • My wake on lan is enabled but not working

    I have a mid June '12 Macbook Pro running splashtop. I have enabled wake on LAN through "Energy Saver" under "Preferences." The Macbook Pro is hooked up to an ethernet cable to my AirPort Extreme router. When I try to use "Wake on LAN" button/icon/feature through Splashtop 2 on my iPad, my Macbook Pro remains shutdown or in standby mode. Also, I have an SSD installed with 8GB of RAM if this matters any. Is anyone having this problem and can someone offer some advice? Thank you.

    is the macbook pro closed or open?  it can't wake if its closed despite your 'wake on lan' setting

  • Flashplayer 11 installed and enabled but not working

    using IE 11 with Windows 7. previous version(s) have worked in the past. However IE version 11 was recently installed and flash player issue started at that time. Maybe related??? Adobe site says installation successful. Went through all related troubleshooting tips and no issues were found.

    IE11 has wrought havoc since it was released.
    Facebook, Yahoo, YouTube, Pogo... all have reported numerous problems.
    Microsoft has recommended enabling Compatibility view for affected sites: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/internet-explorer/use-compatibility-view#ie=ie-11  but that has met with about 50% success.

  • Device is enabled but not star

    I have looked everywhere for a solution to this problem and found one:
    Symtom:
    Sound Blaster Li've 24-bit Device shows up in device manager correctly (no
    ! on it)
    Device is enabled and is working properly.
    Clicking on properties shows that the device is enabled but not started.
    Creative Diagnostics indicates that only hardware driver passes testing, all others (midi,wave, etc) failed.
    Control Panel -> Sound/Audio devices shows no audio devices.
    Problem:
    Plug and Play Device Emulator not listed in system devices.
    Solution:
    Copy C:\WINDOWS\inf\machine.inf to C:\temp
    Edit C:\temp\machine.inf so that you delete the line that says ExcludeFromSelect:*
    Go to Control Panel and add hardware.
    Click Yes it is already connected.
    Add new system device
    Choose driver to install from list
    Click on Have disk.
    Browse to C:\temp\machine.inf
    Select System Devices/Plug and Play Enumerator.
    System Specs:
    Windows XP SP2
    Sound Blaster Li've 24-bit
    Pentium 5 .5GHz
    Gb PC2700 RAM
    What I tried before doing this that didn't work:
    * removing sound card from motherboard completely,
    * tried reseating in each of 5 different pci slots
    * uninstalling all sound drivers and devices
    * reinstalling all creative software
    * cleansweep of windows
    * uninstall from device manager and allow windows to detect
    * ctzapxx.exe on cd from creative.
    * confirm on-board sound card was disabled in BIOS
    None of those things seemed to work. I'm not sure why the plug and play device enumerator has to be there or what it does, but when I reinstalled that device, my sound card was working perfectly again.
    I only post this because I see many people having similar problems!

    I had the exactly same problem with my new Sound Blaster Li've 24-bit card. (Device is enabled and is working properly, clicking on properties shows that the device is enabled but not started, Diagnostics indicates that only hardware driver passes testing, all others (midi,wave, etc) failed.)
    This is a Perfect working solution!
    THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
    My "system" specs:
    Windows XP SP2 (all updates available instaled)
    Sound Blaster Li've 7. 24 bit BULK
    CPU K6 II/400 MHz
    RAM 256Mb PC33
    Slots:
    AGP (2x)
    2 ISA
    3 PCI 2.0!!!
    Luckily for me, my problem was in the enumerator, not in my old PC.
    THANK YOU VERY MUCH AGAIN!

  • Page is working ok in chrome and IE but not working in firefox. jquery problem i guess

    this page is working correctly in chrome and IE but not working in firefox, i cant click and of the dropdown menus(ДСП, доличество дверей). it was working perfectly prior firefox 18. can you please fix the compatibility problem ?

    I was referring to the second page in my above post.
    I disabled JavaScript as a test after loading the page with JavaScript enabled and that worked.<br />
    I also get the selects to open if I right-click instead of left-click the select.<br />
    That way the select get selected (shows a focus ring) and after that left-clicking works as well .
    This assumes that JavaScript is monitoring the left-click, but that script no longer works properly.

    my problem is this:-
    At the moment calls are leaving on the first available channel of my h323 voice gateway PRI, I can apply this command to the interface fine but it makes no difference the b cannels are always being picked on a first come  first served basis . I have also tried combination "isdn bchan-number-order decending" and "isdn bchan-number-order descending round-robin" but it makes no difference , the first b channel is always selected .
    Any ideas , if you think its a bug can u identify the bug id as I cannot find it .

    Hello
     I can see that you use ascending , that why you hit 1st channel.You have to choose one of these commands ascending or descending
    I have a question here , for your incoming calls which channel hits ?.FYI isdn bchan-number-order descending is enable by default , so if you need to change you have to type ascending. Can you just share incoming calls which channel hits?.This is because before you define your outgoing calls , you have to check your service provider channel used, and this to avoid error channel is not available.
    Command
    Router(config-if)# isdn bchan-number-order {ascending | descending}
    Purpose
    Enables B channel selection for outgoing calls on a PRI interface (optional).
    Thanks

  • DragAcceptFiles Working in Windows 10 TP build 9926 But Not Working In build 10049 and build 10061

    This is a cross post from
    https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/a63519d4-ba7a-46c1-bb34-ad034b836964/dragacceptfiles-working-in-9926-but-not-working-in-10049-and-10061?forum=WinPreview2014General.  The moderator suggested I post this here:
    My company has a software product that accepts dragged items.  In all versions of Windows from XP through Windows 10 build 9926 that functionality has worked fine.  However, with build 10049 (possibly 10041 which I did not test thoroughly before going
    to 10049) and now 10061 that functionality stopped working.  The application calls DragAcceptFiles to enable drag drop messages.  In addition, either ChangeWindowMessageFilter is called on Vista or ChangeWindowMessageFilterEx is called on Windows
    7 and higher for the messages WM_DROPFILES, WM_COPYDATA, and WM_COPYGLOBALDATA.  This was working fine on Windows 10 build 9926.  Now when I attempt to drag an item to our software product, I get the "Don't" symbol (circle with line through
    it) and no WM_DROPFILES messages are received.  The application is unchanged with only an upgrade to the Windows 10 build performed.  As a sanity check, I created a brand new VM running build 9926 and the functionality worked fine.  I then upgraded
    the VM to 10049 and it stopped working.  The following day I upgraded to 10061 and it is still broken.  Is there are new filter or restriction in place since build 9926 on DragAcceptFiles that would be stopping the traditional drag drop procedure
    from working? This is very frustrating because there is a dearth of information on Windows 10 API changes and since this appears to be some kind of recent change, I am out of ideas of where to look for answers.  I can duplicate this problem on the older
    platforms by simply calling DragAcceptFiles with the second parameter set to false.  In that case, on Windows 7 for example, I will get the "Don't" symbol just I am getting now in the Windows 10 TP with the argument set to true.

    DragAcceptFiles is now working again in 10074 so whatever the problem was, it has been fixed.

    Updated my iphone 3gs, lost my music and apps, they are backed up on my computer but i cannot move them over to my phone, tried to sync but not working, please help

    well first make sure that when you click on the name of your iphone on the left hand side of itunes that you go to the app and music tab and check mark the sync apps and sync music. then try clicking apply in the bottom right hand corner. then if not try doing it again after going to prefrences in the top menu and going to devices tab and click reset sync history if that doesnt work with music try and drop and drag to the name of your iphone, lastly if that doesnt work you can try restoring from a backup from before you updated. it will keep the new software but put everything that was on your phone when you created the backup back onto your phone.
