1Intel® Virtualization Technology requires a computer system with an enabled Intel® processor, BIOS, virtual machine monitor (VMM) and, for some uses,
certain computer system software enabled for it. Functionality, performance or other benefits will vary depending on hardware and software configurations
and may require a BIOS update. Software applications may not be compatible with all operating systems. Please check with your application vendor.
