Check your bios. If your CPU+board support it, there will be an option |

to enable-disable it. |

A 4year old AMD64, something like athlon3000+ ? (which is what I've got) |
7 |
probably won't have it. |

But I'm not sure that you'll need it. I don't use vmware for |
10 |
virtualisation, I've messed with virtualbox which works ok and is very |
11 |
easy to setup, but prefer qemu.Both perform ok, even without 'hardware |
12 |
virtualisation' features. |

I guess you'll just have to go by trial and error, especially when |
15 |
you're depending on using stuff like hardware-dongles. |
