I've just got a Genesis II laptop - it's a hi spec machine as I need to be able to run windows 2008 R2 and several virtual machines on the laptop using Hyper-V.
The processor, intel i7, supports hardware virtualisation (HyperVisor). This is often turned off in the BIOS by default and is normally a simple task to enable it.
The problem is that the BIOS , InsydeH20, on the Genesis II laptop appears to be extremely restricted, and the option to turn on hardware virtualisation is missing, along with a lot of other options you'd normally see. About the only things that can be are the boot order and the system date.
I sort of suspect that there is a hidden "administrators" or "advanced" BIOS screen somewhere, but I can't find it.
Does anyone know if this is the case? I've searched online but drawn a blank. I've also emailed PCSpecialist support, but after 24 hours I've not heard anything from them - not even an acknowledgement.
I'd really appreciate any help as without Hypervisor the laptop is pretty much useless to me.
