Hypervisor not running Windows 8 Professional

I know that there have been a lot of posts for this, but I have poked around everywhere and cannot find an answer for my Hypervisor situation, and most everything I see is make sure that you can support it, as well as have DEP and Virtualization enabled. I have poked around my BIOS turning on and off different things that are close to relation to virtualization. I recently swapped out my mobo and have found that I get the Hypervisor error when trying to start a hyper-v machine. I have enabled both DEP and Virtualization and know that my processor supports it (Worked on my other mobo). I know that this mobo supports the virtualization and can run VMware and Virtual box which I am doing now since Hyper-V hasn't been working. I would like to run Hyper-V on my machine and want to know if anyone else has any other solutions that I have not been able to find. I have not had VMware or Virtual box install when trying to run (to be sure there are no conflicts)

If you need any other information let me know.

Run this command from a command prompt with admin rights (http://superuser.com/questions/497252/how-to-access-the-administrator-command-prompt-in-windows-8):

bcdedit /set {current} hypervisorlaunchtype auto

reboot and look if Hyper-V now works.

Have you done a full power off after enabling VT-x in the BIOS?  You have to do a cold boot before VT-x takes effect.

To add to Bob's reply;

Some folks with laptops have had to go as far as pulling the battery for the DEP setting to actually be applied to the BIOS.  Something about a shutdown not being a true power off for certain models.

you can always

- enable DEP

- disable USB 3.0

- set bcdedit hypervisor=auto

- enable/disable virtualization in bios using a cold boot

- change partitions

- install a ms kb hotfix for amd cpus

- etc....

but PLEASE read about this post on HP forums blaming the Ralink Bluetooth Driver causing that virtualization issue !

I had this issue after I mirrored from one disk to another using Samsung Magician. I ended up just uninstalling and reinstalling Hyper-V from Control Panel > Programs and Features > Turn Windows features on or off, rebooting when prompted.  I then had to re-create my virtual switch and all was fine.
