List of Intel Processors that support XPMode

It seems some of the most advanced Intel Processors doesnt support XPMode

for eg:
Core 2 Quad Q8200 and Core 2 Duo E7400 wont support XPMode

so here is complete list of Intel Processors(both desktop and Mobile) that support XPMode:

Intel to Add support for Intel Virtualization for

Core 2 Quad Q8300,
Core 2 Duo E7500,
Core 2 Duo E7400,
Pentium E5400 and
Pentium E5300.

So the Processor bought after June 12 will support Hardware Virtualization

You can also use SecurAble to determine if your processor can support hardware virtualization, the feature needed by XP Mode.



Disclaimer: I believe this information is accurate, but it is possible that some mistakes may be present in list, caused by inaccuracies in Intel’s documentation.

Namaste!

You should add the Core i7 975, as engineering samples have been out for several months now and it is on its way to manufacturing....

Also, anyone reading this post - Securable will tell you that your processor is *capable* of the Intel Virtualization extensions, and may even report that they are enabled, but there is a disclaimer - Securable is a 32bit application, and thus cannot accurately verify if the VT Extensions are enabled or not.

My own machine has issues (relating back to the nVidia mobo / system drivers) with retaining the virtualization extensions unless it is booted from a cold boot - the only reliable way I have of ascertaining whether they are enabled is to us a burned CD ROM of a very small .ISO file called VT.ISO - I was linked to it when I was testing VMWare Workstation 6.5 Beta, and it showed me unequivocally if VT extensions were enabled or not.

Just as a point of reference, this is what I see when I run Securable from inside Vista x64 or Win7 x64:

Hardware Virtualization

This processor does offer advanced hardware support for virtualization. However, while running under a 64-bit version of Windows this program cannot execute its 32-bit kernel code to determine whether Intel's VMX virtual machine extensions are being locked on, locked off, or neither. Since there's a chance that your system's BIOS may be deliberately disabling support for hardware virtualization (some do) you should re-run this program, if possible, with administrative privileges under a 32-bit version of NT, XP, or Vista. That will allow SecurAble to run a bit of kernel-mode code in order to determine exactly what's going on. (Note that you can also poke around in your system's BIOS to see whether you're able to find any references to "hardware virtualization" or "VMX", etc.

If you want to test your system's true support (and this may only be needed for those running Intel CPUs on nVidia-chipset based motherboards, but it is helpful to know either way) take a gander at this file:

View attachment vt.zip

It's small, and it is an ISO - you can probably extract the contents (or else use a virtual CD tool and mount it) and make a bootable UFD and save a platter, but I have so many TDK CD-RWs here that I recycled one of my older WinXP Norton Ghost backups....

Enjoy.

The list is not up to date about Intel's CPU

Intel Annonced ( April, 20) some change for low end CPU:

E5300; E5400; E7300; E7500 will support VT-x. No new stepping, but new code sSpec

Q8300 and Q8400 will support VT-x itoo.

Of course this are only for new CPU, not for those you bought until yeat.

LePoilu, would you mind referencing the article(s) that point this out so others can have this verification readily at hand?

I only have french article:
La virtualisation de retour sur plusieurs processeurs Intel - PC INpact

But it comes with this table:
Affichage en plein page de Intel PCN - PC INpact

my celeron is not working with it. its a Intel Celeron 530

you may want to add that to the list

yeah! my comps compatible.

I purchased a E5300 on 2 June and testing with Intel's own tool for it it's reported to NOT support it. My dealer must have set me up and got rid of some old crap and now he's :roflmao: behind my back!

or could you possibly read out some date in that article?

What about the Intel Atom?? I haven't realy played with virtualisation, but does anyone know if the Atom is supported??

I have a 7450 processor that is listed as a NO
Secuable says I have D.E.P. but not hardware visualization.

is there any way round getting it to work on a Toshiba m800? could I update teh BIOS?

You're CPU doesn't support VT.. There's nothing you can do except changing the CPU

Here is mine.

My T6570 has VT LOCKED ON according to securable.

Yes, you could say I'm pissed off with this XP Mode thing, as I bought an Intel Q8200 a while ago THINKING it was a wise purchase. Little did I know that this is not compatible with the XP Mode feature.

I knew I should of stuck with my AMD cpus!

Another + for the Q6600 GO

AMD is the way to go.

hi, how do i know that the E7400 processor that i bought is the one that can support virtualization?

do i assume mine cannot support virtualization because SecureAble is telling me that Hardware Virtualization for my processor is "Locked Off"?

What about mine? Will the Q8200 work? I can't believe I bought a new computer without paying attention to the virtualization stuff! Shame on me!

How about motherboard support?

Does motherboard chipset type is the only matter to decide a motherboard that support hardware virtualization?

oh thanks,that's very very good
