If your system doesn’t support Hardware Virtualization, unfortunately you won’t be able to run XP Mode. Make sure you know what you’re doing when updating your system BIOS and follow all the manufacturer’s steps, otherwise you can turn the PC into a giant paper weight. If you still don’t see it, you might be able to update to the manufacturers latest version and get it to work. Look carefully in the BIOS because the setting is not always clearly labeled. If it’s not available or locked off, you might be able to go into the system BIOS and activate it. It doesn’t require installation and quickly tells you if your CPU is capable of Hardware Virtualization. One of the easiest tools I have found is SecurAble from the Gibson Research Company. An Intel processor uses Intel Virtualization Technology and an AMD processor would be AMD-V with their Virtualization capability. Your system CPU will need to be able to support hardware virtualization. If you have a new computer you might assume that it should be able to run XP Mode right? Not necessarily.
