Default Re: How to Enable Intel VT and AHCI on a Napa/Santa Rosa platform Phoenix BIOS Vaio laptop

It has been a while since anyone updated the "master table" so I thought I'd tackle it. Below is a summary of all the posts stating that the poster has successfully enabled VT on their VAIO. The model numbers below are NOT in sequence. Locate your model and VERIFY THAT YOU HAVE THE SAME BIOS VERSION. (That point is VERY important.)

Disclaimer: I take no responsibility to the accuracy of the data below. In fact, before you start, I highly recommend you search this thread for your model and BIOS version to be sure I transcribed the data correctly. Use it at your own risk. I repeat, I take no, zero, nada, zilch responsibility for this data nor what happens to your machine if you attempt to unlock VT. Also I will not entertain questions on the procedure. Everything you need to know to do this is outlined clearly in this thread. I would appreciate hearing from anyone who notices an error in my transcription of the data or new model/BIOS info to add. In the words of the old Hill Street Blues desk Sargent: Be careful out there!

[08/24/09 - Note: I rearranged the order of the list, to group machines with the same register together.]
[08/31/09 - Note: Added a section for Desktop Models too.]
[09/10/09 - Reorganized the list adding model groups and organized by BIOS version within model groups.]
[12/4/09 - I just found a list composed by Dunkinn over on vmware.com: Another list. He draws upon the list here (and credits that fact) as well as some other sources he has found. So if you don't find your model here try his list as well. You will need to manually scroll down to message #85.]
