    hey,

    I've recently been trying to install Citrix Xenclient on my new Vaio (european model, i think for he usa this is the cy range). Seems VT-D is disabled. Vt-x can be enabled by doing so in the bios, but i can't unlock the advanced menu following the guide for the Z series elsewhere in the forum.
    I dumped my rom as described in the Z-thread, we altered the "advanced menu" script with my offset value and when we run it it doesn't give any errors when altering the rom. So we thought we were succesfull but when we boot from the new rom, no advanced menu appears.

    Basically we don't know for which offset to look or how to look for it. If I could only activate VT-d that would be great allready.

    Any ideas?

    thx
    Kevin

    Is there really no one else with the same issue. I found out that the USA model for my notebook is the VPCY21EFX.

    regards
