DL580 G3 - Enabling Hyper-V

[Judy Wick]

I've updated the BIOS and was able to enable the Intel V-Technology. However, after disabling the processor hyper-threading and enabling the no-execute memory protection, when I try to add the Hyper-V role in Windows 2008 Ent, I receive an error "that the processor of this server is not compatible with Hyper-V......"

What processors model you have in this box? Have you tried without disabling HyperT?

[Judy Wick]

It's a x64 bit using 4 core processors, Intel(R) Xeon(TM) MP CPU 3.33GHz, 3335 Mhz, 1 Core(s), 2 Logical Processor(s)

The hyper-threading is disabled, per HP's document, so I will go ahead and try with it enabled.

Did you find a solution?
