Steps to Enable AMD-V in BIOS/UEFI:
Restart Your PC:
Make sure to save any work and restart your PC.
Enter BIOS/UEFI:
As soon as your PC starts booting, press the BIOS access key. Common keys are:
F2
Delete
Esc
F10
The specific key depends on your motherboard manufacturer, so check your PC or
motherboard manual if unsure.
Navigate to CPU Settings:
Once in the BIOS/UEFI interface, look for a tab or section like "Advanced," "CPU
Configuration," "Chipset," or "Security."
Use the arrow keys to navigate through the menu.
Find AMD-V or SVM Mode:
Look for a setting labeled "SVM Mode" (Secure Virtual Machine) or "AMD-V" (AMD
Virtualization).
This might be under the Advanced CPU Settings or Security section.
Enable AMD-V/SVM:
Change the setting to Enabled. This might be a toggle or a dropdown menu that lets
you select between Enabled and Disabled.
Save and Exit:
After enabling AMD-V, press F10 or follow the on-screen instructions to Save and
Exit BIOS/UEFI.
Your PC will reboot.
Verify Virtualization is Enabled:
Once your system boots back into Windows, you can verify that AMD-V is enabled:
Open Task Manager (Ctrl + Shift + Esc).
Go to the Performance tab.
Select CPU from the left menu.
Look for Virtualization on the right side. It should say "Enabled."
