Tech Support Need help turning off Virtualization Technology in BIOS on HP OMEN 16 for PUBG
Hey everyone,
I need help disabling Virtualization Technology (VT-x / AMD-V / SVM) on my HP OMEN 16 for PUBG / anti-cheat troubleshooting, but the settings aren't sticking or I can't find the exact toggle.
I've already tried several general troubleshooting steps from ChatGPT, including:
Entering the HP BIOS menu (via F10 / Esc) and checking the Configuration / Advanced tabs.
Turning off Virtualization-Based Security (VBS) and Core Isolation in Windows Security.
Disabling Hyper-V and Windows Hypervisor Platform features via Turn Windows features on or off.
Despite this, either the setting doesn't appear properly in the OMEN BIOS or Windows still detects virtualization as active.
For anyone using an HP OMEN 16, what is the exact BIOS menu path to disable Virtualization Technology completely, and is there any specific OMEN/HP utility overriding it?
Thanks in advance!
