HP Zbook 15 and Intel EPT

I am looking to buy a laptop capable of 32 GB of RAM. The only HP portfolio is the Zbook line as far as I can see. The only reason for this requirement is that I want to build a portable laboratory to run the virtual environment nested.

Now for my question: the Intel I7 CPU, I want in the laptop has the peculiarity of Extended Page Table (EPT) required to operate these VMs nested, but I know from experience that some providers (like dell) will not let you enable from BIOS.

I asked HP before sale but to my surprise THEY DON'T KNOW! 

Someone out there with a Zbook or knowledge on this subject?

I was lucky enough to be able to lend a ZBook 15 and I can conclude that EFA is active when virtualization is enabled in the BIOS. I am running Windows 8.1-> VMWare Workstation-> ESXi-> Windows 2012R2

I must say that HP presale disappoints me. I know this isn't a typical question of everyday, but should not be excessively difficult to answer IMO. The e-mail to the pre-sale form is just a black hole; I tried this several times and not ONCE got a response.

    Hello

    The Intel graphics chip, which is part of the central unit should be used for low performance applications, because it allows you to save energy and reduce the internal temperature.

    For best performance while game, it s advisable to use the external GPU (nVidia or AMD)
    This setting can be changed in the nVidia control panel s

    Here, you should choose manage them 3D settings (can be found on the left in the nVidia control panel)

    Now in the main window, you will find two global settings and program parameters tabs
    In the program settings tab, select the (game) program that needs to use the nVIdia GPU

    If it is not listed, click the Add button
    Then choose the graphic processor preferred for this program (generally must be nVidia processor high performance)

    Last but no less, in this program-specific settings, you can assign additional features to improve performance.

  • Using Nvidia Geforce and Intel hd graphics card both at the same time for games

    Helloo,

    I am new to the community. I bought Lenovo y50 last month. It comes with the dedicated graphics card Nvidia Geforce gtx 860M and Intel HD 4600 Graphics intigrated. Its a portable game even if I am faced with leggings in some high permorfance games.

    Can I use the graphics card Nvidia GeForce and Indigrated Intel HD graphycs... the two all in games...?

    Thank you... Help will be appreciated...

    One thing you can do to ensure the highest perfomance on games is to go to the Nvidia Control Panel programs, manage 3D settings, then find the game you want and set to use only High Performance NVIDIA graphics (or discrete).

    You can not use both cards at the same time by writing this (DirectX 11), but with the arrival of Windows 10 and DirectX 12 July 29, you will be able to use both at the same time to increase performance. So far, however, it is simply not possible to use both at the same time. The best option is to use only the GTX 860 M.

  • Upgrade of RAM and Intel graphics

    Hello
    I recently discovered that I could improve my graphics ram and intel. So I went to the performance and tools tgen relize my rankings are not the base score is 4.6 and gamming is 5.2 so you have any recommendations on new graphics for 32-bit operating system and then I put my ram from 4 GB to more than that.

    Hello

    First, your machine is running 32-bit, the RAM upgrade anything more than 4 GB is wasting money because the 32 bit OS can not access to more than 4 Gb. Second, you cannot upgrade the Intel video chip, it is soldered to the motherboard.

    Kind regards.

  • W520 and Intel SSD 520 external casing replacement?

    I decided to upgrade my W520 the Intel SSD 320 to 520 SSD Intel.  I tried the 520 in an enclosed and theW520 does not recognize the drive.  I am trying to determine if the problem is the controller in the external case Thermaltake BlacX or was it simply the problem of having the drive in an external enclosure? (In other words, it would work in a different case).  I got an OCZ Vertex 3 that would work not in external enclosures, so I'm inclined to think this is the Forum as being both the Vertex 3 and Intel 520 uses SandForce controllers.

    Suport of Lenovo, I called and they told me that the only way I can copy the disc's to buy their Ultrabay III of A 0, 65623 adapter and copy the disks inside the machine.  I use older software of Casper and I don't think he would have Renesas USB 3 drivers, if I boot from a CD and trying to copy my old hard drive backup.

    Obviously people do that.  And, if the Ultrabay III adapters are not available at this time, they must do without them.

    How can I copy my data from the old drive to the new drive?

    Thank you!

  • dv9550 and Intel SSD X 25 - M SATA / IDE

    Hello

    I bought my HP Pavilion in 2007 and in March 2010 I bought Windows 7 (64-bit) and Intel SSD X 25 - M 80 GB Gen2. And I noticed the wire that fell off my SSD performance.

    I discovered that my computer doesen't interface use S - ATA but IDE on the SSD drive because of the map associated to the hard drive of my computer (an adapter that are used to mount the S - ATA drives).

    And when my SSD drive use IDE interface, then Intel SSD Toolbox doesen't use TRIM function and then on my SSD performance fell.

    I read that I should change it to AHCI mode in the BIOS, but I don't find it anywhere because I don't have "' access restricted and see all the features I want to see in a normal installation of BIOS.

    Is it possible to "lock" the BIOS and put the drive in AHCI mode in order for my SSD drive work faster?

    Check the Device Manager, expand IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers and see if there is an AHCI controller installed, if there is then AHCI is enabled.

  • Satellite P100-463 and Intel VT

    HY

    I have a Satellite P100-463 laptop (model Nr. PSPA6E-03N01CGR), with Bios Version 2.7. Intel VT (virtualization) is disabled and Toshiba said there is no way to enable it.

    One of my friends has almost the same model P100-354 (model Nr. PSPA6E-03H01FGR), but with BIOS Version 2.4 and on this laptop VT works. Tool Intel said that :-)

    2 laptops have similar hardware (354 has a 2 GHz cpu, but VT should work on both).
    So, I do not understand that...? ! ? This is the Version of the BIOS? Is it possible to downgrade my BIOS.

    Thank you

    The point is not all processors support Intel virtualization technology.
    If the processor supports VT BIOS must contain this ON / OFF option.

    But if the BIOS does not support it ON / OFF option you should check the European driver Toshiba page and should update the BIOS!

    Then the power button VT should reappear.

    Best regards

  • Satellite Pro P100 - support for 4 GB of RAM in Win7 64 and Intel Virtualization

    Hello to the members of the forum,

    I have the Satellite Pro P100 (PSPAHE - 002001GR) and I installed the WIN 7 Enterprise 64 free trial. I have Modules of memory 2 x 2 GB Corsair, a T7400 processor and Bios version 4.7. Everything works fine without their memory. Known BIOS all 4 GB, Windows see it uses but only 3 GB. I know im not alone with this problem, but I have not found a solution to solve it. In msconfig, all right, there's max, and the number of processors. RAM not activated.

    If someone knows a way to work to use all 4 GB of installed Ram?

    I would be much obliged if anyone can help.

    Something else. Intel VT - X is not enabled by BIOS. Also, there is no option to do this. When I bought the laptop it is a feature that I want to use, and now the BIOS does not support it. Why didn't pay much for the laptop so characteristic specific card do not work propably?

    Thanks to everyone for reading my post and want to help.

    SOFC

    Hello

    Perhaps than that you seem stupid now, but I think that this model laptop was never supported for 64-bit operating systems, and I think the BIOS is also not designed for this.
    If you wish, you can call Toshiba nearest service and ask for help. They have access to the database of Toshiba and they can check it for you.

    Hi, I'm new to the forum

    I have a Qosmio G30 with Windows 7 32 bit - model G30 140 31F
    I bought an SSD intel 160 GB because of the promissed 250 MB/sg reading speed, because I need for video editing.
    I tried in Win Xp and now Windows 7 and it gets up to 120 MB/Sg

    I guess it s because of the drivers but I instal the drivers of storage can´t intel matrix any version of it. I tried a lot of them and with the compatibility mode too. It gives me an error saying I have not the minimum requirement.

    I have 4 GB of RAM and 2.0 Gzs centrino duo.
    I have install intel ssd toolbox and it does not recognize the intel SSD drive as a drive intel to improve the speed and other things.

    Please help me to get my speed in the car because it has to be and to have the TRIM option enable in order to have the life of my unit any longer.
    I also have the latest firmware in the drive.

    Thank you in advance.

    PD: It coul be, perhaps, if our computer is a sata 150 controller in place a 300 sata controller? I don't know if the control is one of them in any case.

    Hi Gazpachete,

    I put t know how you managed now installing Windows, but Qosmio G30 is equipped with a SATA150 interface... This means that you will never get the 250 MB/s read speed of the HARD drive. You will get a maximum speed of 150 MB/s theoretically, but in most cases it of also a little slower.

    How did you check the current speed?
    But 120 MB/s is a good speed. You should be satisfied and it s faster than each computer portable HARD drive. ;)

  • How can I get the graphics in the games on screen and Intel graphics card?

    Hello:

    I recently got a Compaq Presario CQ57-339wm laptop PC.

    It has Win 7 HP 64 bit installed.

    I've updated the memory up to 8 GB.

    Intel Celeron 1.5 gb CPU B800

    Intel HD graphics card.

    And there the new Chipset HM65.

    My question is this.

    While I know it will run that high end games.

    I was wondering if someone could tell me how to get "FULL SCREEN GRAPH" when you play simple games like Empire Earth, Dungeon Lords, Solitaire, chess, build a Lot, etc.?

    On a laptop with Intel Graphics awhile back I could go in the graphical control panel and select the stretch to the size of the screen option and he would give me full screen graphics.

    BUT!

    When I go into the graphics Control Panel now, I don't see this option.

    What gives?

    I do not expect to run high-end graphics, but fucking hell, I should at least be able to enjoy full-screen display size of 1366 x 768 instead of graphic image format.

    I would appreciate any help...

    Hi again:

    As I had not had a response to my question, I thought that I better go and to fend for myself.
