Im having such hard trouble reaching my bios. I need to enable virtualization. Or atleast check if it is disabled.

I have a toshiba laptop L500 series. Windows 7 , Core 2 Duo processor. Any ways to reach it ?

It's either Esc or one the F1-F12 keys, or maybe even DEL, mash all of them till you find out, thats what I do :P

@wootpops Im not a kid that does not know anything of pc -_-. I've been getting my electronics license in an aviation school for over 5 years since high school. I just never felt like going t the bios till now.

And again none of those keys posted here works. -_- The ESC key just restart my laptop again


Been trying to install Mac OS x on vmware but keep getting. Invalid Front-Side bus 66000000 .

Perfectly possible- just more difficult.
