Help with regards to enabling VT [InsydeH2O]
#1
Hello. I am currently trying to find a way to force Intel-VT to be enabled, as my system has a supervisor password preventing me from changing the settings. I can give you some context.
Up to 2014 my country had a program where students entering Secondary School would be given a (pretty crappy) laptop to assist with learning. Flash forward to almost 7 years later, I've been out of school for almost 2 years and this is *still* the main computer I use. (Yes, I know. I can't do anything about it.)


I've been trying for a number of years to bypass the supervisor password to access BIOS settings to no avail, all just to try getting VT enabled.


Today I tried updating the BIOS from here. The BIOS I tried to update to was 9ccn35ww(?) [based on the .exe name]. At first, it told me that it wasn't a newer BIOS than what I had. This is likely because when the government bought the laptops, they seemed to have some partnership with Lenovo that shipped a modified BIOS. (There's a custom boot image for it at least). I extracted the files of the BIOS updater and edited platform.ini setting Bios_Version_Check to 0. It then seemed to "install" but when it rebooted into the BIOS, it said it was unable to decompress (the firmware).


Right now I'm at my limit. I don't even care about unlocking the BIOS, I just want to find a way to force VT to be enabled. The MSR 0x3a is set to 0x00000001, so it's locked and I can't change it from in the OS itself. Does anybody have *any* way to help me force this thing to be enabled? I'm willing to try just about anything. Thanks.


Oh, and P.S., your forum's editor seems to be a bit broken.

I forgot to mention it, but thanks to Maxinator500 for helping me get Virtualization enabled!
