Re: How to disable hardware virtualization
When we pass a physical machine to a virtual machine, or change virtualization software to a VMWare virtual pc or other alternartives, our team may not start because of all the hardware changes that suffers from migration. To do this we can tell that you start with a layer of hardware abstraction using generic hardware.
