AMD-V DL385G1

wilson94t — Sat, 10 Jan 2009 22:48:45 GMT

I've a DL385G1 server in our lab, and there is no AMD-V option in the bios. Anyone have a way to turn this on?

We're using the AMD 285 2.6Ghz DC CPU's

Can someone confirm that the AMD-V is supported on the 285 series CPU, or do i need to go to the 2xxx series (Rev F and newer)?

no that series does not support AMD-V

and yes the next generation(2xxx) which is used for DL385 G2 supports AMD-V
