Anymore detailed information? Also are there any options on BIOS to enable vt?

Thanks
Yunhong Jiang
 
My system has no BIOS options that mention VT in any way at all.
 
I've heard of some systems with VT disabled in firmware, and on these systems there's a telltale message from XEN as it boots up.  Something about VT being disabled by CSR settings.  I don't see any such message on my system, so I _assumed_ (wrongly perhaps) that my CPU and BIOS both support VT.  I didn't even think that the chipset could be a limiter. 
 
Can  anyone tell me what part the chipset plays in VT virtualization?
 
Thanks,
Derek.
