Bios help

savagesam117 · 24 Feb 2015 at 19:01

I'm trying to make an android app but i can't run the emulator due to VT-x not being on.

Does anyone know where it would be in the BIOS? I can see from one screen that is supported on my CPU. I have found a VT-d but not VT-x

i5 4690K
Asus z97 Pro Gamer motherboard.

Anyone have any clue?

The option is not listed in your motherboard manual (VT-d is), and Intel's page at http://ark.intel.com/products/80811/Intel-Core-i5-4690K-Processor-6M-Cache-up-to-3_90-GHz does state:

This feature may not be available on all computing systems. Please check with the system vendor to determine if your system delivers this feature, or reference the system specifications (motherboard, processor, chipset, power supply, HDD, graphics controller, memory, BIOS, drivers, virtual machine monitor-VMM, platform software, and/or operating system) for feature compatibility. Functionality, performance, and other benefits of this feature may vary depending on system configuration.

To me it looks like your board/bios doesn't offer the option.

Fair enough.. Ah well, not to worry!
