im trying to setup virtual windows xp on my windows 7 machine.

i know i need to set hardware-assisted visualisation to enabled in the bios which i have done but when i run virtual windows xp i get a popup saying its still disabled...

sorry if this is in the wrong place but does anyone have any ideas?

You also need to enable execute bit disable before hardware assisted virtualisation will work. I am not sure of the name given to this technology on AMD motherboards but it should be mentioned in the manual.

where is that found usually? bios?
