    Hello. I have a VT enabled CPU (T8100) on my LG E300. However, Windows 7 doesn't recognize VT support, and there is no option in the bios for activation. Is there any way to enable VT?

    1)What BIOS is this? Insyde or Phoenix?
    2)Can you provide the BIOS image file not executable but the actual BIOS Image usually it is extracted into a temp folder before flashing
    3)What is your laptop full model number?
    There are quite a number of E300 varieties

    Hello I would love to know too. I can't use VT on Windows 7.
    My E300 also has the T8100, and has a Phoenix BIOS.
    It's full model number is E300-A.CB34P
    It's a little nasty to know that the CPU has VT and I can't use it at all. Does anyone know a way to enable it?

    There are BIOS that do not support. Several notebooks do not take advantage of all CPU features. If they don't it does not matter that CPU supports. Short of a BIOS mod think you are out of luck.

    I do not know your model but if you are not doing little I think you can do about it.
