# Enable Virtualization

Some products require CPU virtualization to be enabled in BIOS. This guide explains how to enable virtualization on supported systems.

**What This Does**Virtualization allows your CPU to expose advanced features required by certain software. If virtualization is disabled in BIOS, some products may fail to initialise or function correctly.This setting is controlled from your BIOS/UEFI. The exact layout may differ depending on your motherboard and manufacturer.**Enter BIOS / UEFI**

1. Fully shut down your PC
2. Power it on and immediately press one of the following keys repeatedly:
   * **DEL**
   * **F2**
   * **F10**
   * **ESC**

The correct key is usually shown briefly during boot (e.g. “Press DEL to enter Setup”).**Locate Virtualization Setting**Once inside BIOS, navigate to one of the following sections:

* Advanced
* Advanced BIOS Features
* Advanced CPU Configuration
* Northbridge / Chipset (older systems)

Look for a setting named:

* **Intel Virtualization Technology (VT-x / VT-d)**
* **SVM Mode** (AMD)
* **CPU Virtualization**

**Enable Virtualization**

* Set the virtualization option to **Enabled**
* Save changes and exit BIOS\
  (Usually **F10 → Yes**)

**Confirm in Windows**After rebooting:

1. Open **Task Manager**
2. Go to the **Performance** tab
3. Select **CPU**
4. Confirm **Virtualization: Enabled**
