I was also told that use of the EPT feature is strongly recommended with KVM. Also part of the feature set.<BR /><BR />David Ott Mon, 15 Nov 2010 23:49:16 GMT https://community.intel.com/t5/Software-Archive/KVM-VT-x-VT-d-help/m-p/789999#M5278 David_O_Intel1 2010-11-15T23:49:16Z https://community.intel.com/t5/Software-Archive/KVM-VT-x-VT-d-help/m-p/790000#M5279 <P>VT-x is for CPU while VT-d is for chipset, IOH.</P> Wed, 22 May 2013 02:05:47 GMT https://community.intel.com/t5/Software-Archive/KVM-VT-x-VT-d-help/m-p/790000#M5279 Jack_L_2 2013-05-22T02:05:47Z
