    I'm trying to install windows 2008 r2 in a VMware environment and use Hyper-V.

    Unfortunately it's telling me that I can't use the Hyper-V feature because it is not enable on BIOS.I couldn't find that option on the BIOS

    Have you guys try it to make it work? Any ideas?

    Thank you ,

    You can't run Hyper-V in a VMware environment. Just run the OS's under VMware.
