AMD A8-3530MX APU support for AMD-V

[sanjaychriss]

Hello,
Can you please confirm if the A8-3530MX APU supports virtualization AMD-V.
I do not find the virtualization option in the BIOS of the HP Pavilion DV6 laptop.
I have also upgraded the BIOS to the latest but no joy.

Need help please.

Thanks
Sanjay

According to the A8-3530MX page on this site, it does support virtualization. (Click on the part number to go to that page)

Hi debs,
Thanks for your response the below site does not mention the same.

On the link you gave, under where it says "Sabine (Mobile)", the first line show features that are common to all mobile Llano chips. The last thing on that line is AMD-V, which is AMD virtualisation.

It sounds like your BIOS doesn't support it.

Hi Debs,
Thanks for the quick reply and confirming the features on the wiki site i just needed an expert opinion.
But could it be possible that HP has not realised this and this should be raised with their support teams.

I have also upgraded to their latest bios but no luck.

cheers
Sanjay
