Updated GT70 BIOS but still no vt-x. help please!

Hello everyone! This is my first post so forgive me if I don't sound to competent.
I updated my BIOS to the 10R listed on the MSI Website for the sake of virtualization. I updated from the 10C version.
After the update, I booted into the BIOS to verify that the BIOS version properly updated. It did. Then I searched for the vt-x option but I didn't see it. I read on another topic (  https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=165254.0 ) that this is normal, so I didn't give it much thought. I went ahead into Virtualbox to start up my virtual machine and the program tells me that this isn't possible because "vt-x features locked or unavailable in MSR."
Is there something else i have to do to my BIOS to properly unlock this feature?

OK so I ran the program and it says "Yes" for hardware virtualization but then it gives a link for "more" information. Upon clicking it it says
"This processor does offer advanced hardware support for virtualization. However, while running under a 64-bit version of Windows this program cannot execute its 32-bit kernel code to determine whether Intel's VMX virtual machine extensions are being locked on, locked off, or neither. Since there's a chance that your system's BIOS may be deliberately disabling support for hardware virtualization (some do) you should re-run this program, if possible,  with administrative privileges under a 32-bit version of NT, XP, or Vista. That will allow SecurAble to run a bit of kernel-mode code in order to determine exactly what's going on. (Note that you can also poke around in your system's BIOS to see whether you're able to find any references to "hardware virtualization" or "VMX", etc."
So my system is Windows 7 64 bit. I also ran the SecurAble program as administrator but it gives me the same response. I don't have a 32 bit version of Windows so I don't know what to do next... 
EDIT: I just checked Microsoft's HAV Detection tool and it says "Hardware-assisted virtualization is not enabled".   
What should I do?

    It sounds like you may have multiple problems, but none of them are likely to be caused by malware.
    First, the internet-related issues may be related to adware or a network compromise. I tend to lean more towards the latter, based on your description of the problem. See:
    http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/baddns.php
    http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/hackedrouter.php
    If investigation shows that this is not a network-specific issue, then it's probably adware. See my Adware Removal Guide for help finding and removing it. Note that you mention AdBlock as if it should have prevented this, but it's important to understand that ad blockers do not protect you against adware in any way. Neither would any kind of anti-virus software, which often doesn't detect adware.
    As for the other issues, it sounds like you've got some serious corruption. I would be inclined to say it sounds like a failing drive, except it sounds like you just got it replaced. How did you get all your files back after the new drive was installed?

  • ITunes12 stops working when syncing with iPhone5. It can't copy the files. Tried everything; uninstalling, re-installing, updating... Still the same. HELP Please? :'(

    This just happened a day ago. It was when Windows failed to update. When I plugged my phone to the laptop, there seemed to be a pop-up box appearing in iTunes saying, "iTunes has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available" At first only the album artworks of the songs were not copied. I tried uninstalling and re-installing it using the instructions from here: Remove and reinstall iTunes and related software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8 - Apple Support. But still, it did not work. That's why I though t that maybe because Windows wasn't able to update that's why syncing keeps on crashing.
    However, after that failed update yesterday, I was able to update Windows 8.1 today. After that, I tried uninstalling and re-installing iTunes. I cleared up everything even the contents from the library to start anew. After that, I tried syncing it with my phone hoping that it would finally sync. Unfortunately, that evil pop-up window appeared again.
    I really don't know what to do about it. I've been using iTunes for how many years already and I have never experienced crashing.
    And about that solution, well Windows haven't notified me yet. And I doubt if they will.
    I really hope that someone out here could help me solve this problem. I've been stressing out about this the whole day. It's just so hard because there are a lot of files that I lost, especially music. </3
    Thanks

    Hi shararara,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that you are receiving an error that iTunes has stopped responding. I know you have already tried some treat troubleshooting, but in this situation I would suggest working through the steps suggested in the attached article.

  • I cannot open a tab or new window to the right of an existing tab. I've followed the instructions to update via FAQ but still not working. Help!

    I cannot open a tab to the right of an existing tab. I've followed the directions provided under normal FAQ. This feature just recently was wiped from my PC, and I am not certain how.

    The Ask Toolbar is causing that in the Firefox 3.6.13+ versions. Uninstall that extension.
    There are a couple of places to check for the Ask toolbar:
    * Check the Windows Control panel for the Ask Toolbar - http://about.ask.com/apn/toolbar/docs/default/faq/en/ff/index.html#na4
    * Also check your list of extensions, you may be able to uninstall it from there - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+add-ons

  • NAT Type 2 but still strict in MW3 - Help please!!

    So here's my dilemma. I've been searching for 2 days now how to get an open NAT type in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3. 
    I've got a BT HomeHub 2. Simply connecting wirelessly to the network grants me a NAT Type 2, which I understand is supposed to be moderate, and therefore open to a certain extent ... But in-game is says that I have a Strict NAT type and won't let me connect to friends' parties. 
    I've forwarded all sorts of ports as instructed to do so by various online blogs, that didn't work, neither did portforwarding's website. 
    I've tried using a static ip and enabling DMZ on the hub, but that wouldn't even allow my PS3 to connect to the router
    I've even tried using PPPoE, entering some random's email and password into the boxes as I saw on youtube. 
    BT's solution is a load of rubbish ... "Try resetting the modem and select static ip in the HH settings". 
    Has anyone else come across this problem of NAT type 2 being strict on MW3, and have you managed to overcome it??
    I'm not a total gimp when it comes to fiddling with computer settings but I can't work this one out. 
    Thanks

    Exact same problem here,
    Was the above successful and has it remained open?
    I was able to quick fix my Nat type by simply loading the multiplayer on cod4 which must open up the required ports but even that is more complicated with the game not loading now at all unless you disable your router (another kettle of fish).
    The strict Nat doesn't seem to be as bad lag wise so that's something the developers have fixed with the last MW3 update, however the lack of ability to connect to your friends with a million dollar multiplayer such as MW3 is quite frankly unacceptable and completely defeats the object of such games.
    I've tried forwarding ports and all the other methods to no avail, I've yet to try MW2 too see if that will quick fix the problem.
    But please let us know if your forwarded ports are still working with an open nat, and if you can join / hear friends.
    Thanks in advance,
    Otherwise I'm going to try some other routers as I have plenty of friends with different set ups playing fine with open Nat, that being said there are just as many with different providers and routers suffering the same dilemma, this is certainly not just a home hub issue although if I get another router to work I will certainly enjoy throwing the hh out the window...

    My ipod and itunes both are skipping to another song about in the middle of the song. It doesn't happen on all songs...only some songs. I have reset the ipod, I have done a restore, I have reloaded itunes, I have updated the ipod but still am unable to figure out why. It did not used to do this. I can't figure out any pattern to the songs it does it on versus that it doesn't do it on. Some of the songs are purchased, some are imported, etc. We are running Windows 7.

    how long have you had your ipod? mine did the same but after a while you need to get a new one because of the battery...

  • HT4757 I have installed the Raw update 3.12, but still couldn't import the D800 NEF files

    I installed the raw update 3.12, but still couldn't import the D800 raw files to Aperture & iPhoto.

    I found a solution. My E–P3 raw files still showed up as “unsupported” after reinstalling the update from the standalone updater. I discovered that selecting one of the “unsupported” raw files and having Aperture reprocess it (even though it had never been processed at all) made the file recognizable by Aperture and allowed me to make adjustments to it. I then reprocessed all of my E–P3 raw files and the only problem I have noted is that the vertical files were not auto rotated.
    In reprocessing the raw files, I selected "only photos without adjustments" and "reprocess existing images". I hope this helps anyone who experienced this problem.

  • Installed Adobe dlm add-on and now Firfox will not open. I see the process starting in Task Manager but no window opens. Unistalled Firefox then re-installed but still no luck. HELP ME!

    I installed Adobe dlm add-on and now Firefox will not open. I see the process starting in Task Manager but no window opens. Unistalled Firefox then re-installed but still no luck. HELP ME! I do not want to use IE! I presume it has something to do with Adobe DLM as ever since then it is not working.

    I had this problem for a couple weeks as well and it was extremely frustrating considering we use firefox for all our company tasks. Here is the solution:
    First of all if you have no bookmarks you want to save, then go directly to step 7. If you want to save your bookmarks first, then follow these steps.
    1. Shut down the computer
    2. Reboot and open firefox
    3. Go to Task Manager, right click firefox.exe, and click END PROCESS TREE
    4. WAIT 30 SECONDS! Then Double-click the shortcut to try and open firefox again
    5.Repeat steps 3 and 4 until firefox finally opens (trust me, eventually it will)
    6. Once it finally opens, backup your bookmarks,
    7. Download a copy of firefox from there website
    8. Uninstall from programs menu and make sure to check the box REMOVE ALL COMPONENTS
    9. install the new copy and BOOM! it works
    If it doesn't work, you're an idiot. If you don't want to reinstall firefox, then you're out of luck. Good Luck!
