I have an Asus M5A97 R2.0 motherboard, and an AMD fx-4350 processor. I know you have to go into bios to enable virtualization technology, but i can't find it anywhere. Online it says this processor can support it. Any other examples i've seen from this page only work for intel.

Your question is tagged [tag:windows-xp-mode], a [later update](http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/why-am-i-receiving-errors-about-hav) removes the requirement for hardware virtualization. – Scott Chamberlain May 21 '14 at 21:52

1Did ASUS stop providing documentation for it's products? Oh wait, no it didn't. Thanks, Google! - http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/M5A97_R20/HelpDesk_Manual – joeqwerty May 22 '14 at 00:29

Enter your firmware setup, set it to Advanced Mode if you haven’t done so already.
The setting is located at: Advanced → CPU Configuration → SVM
Upon saving, the PC may turn off completely and turn back on again, if I remember correctly. This is normal.
This information is, naturally, available in your board’s manual, page 3-15. ;)

SVM is a.k.a. AMD-V, as described here: http://superuser.com/questions/272590/enable-amd-v-on-asus-m4a88t-m-with-amd-phenom-ii-x6-1090t – underscore_d Apr 06 '16 at 10:57
