Question Blank screen when enabling Virtualization in BIOS

[UnderConstructionGeek]

I have recently upgraded my hard drive from 1TB HDD to 1TB SSD (M.2). I clone my hard drive using Macrium Reflect (Free version). Before I started to clone the hard drive I updated BIOS (HP F.30 03/15/2022) and updated my drivers I also ran tests for Errors or corrupt files anywhere in the drive. Once that was verified I started cloning my HDD to SSD since both my drives are the same storage space I placed the partitions in the exact same place on the SSD as they are in the HDD. The cloning was successful and I am now able to boot from the SSD instead of the HDD. After the cloning was completed I ran a series of tests to verify I had no corrupted files and updated BIOS again just for good measures. I removed the HDD and kept only the M.2 SSD and still, everything is working fine. Where I am having the problem is NOW that I am on an SSD M.2 when I ENABLE Virtualization from BIOS and save the settings the computer will NOT boot up I will only get a BLANK screen it will not reach BIOS nor Windows Boot. In order for me to get the computer working again, I have to remove the M.2 SSD and reinstall the HDD turn on the computer then it catches the BIOS, turns off (disable) virtualization then I can boot from my SSD once again.

Any advice or wisdom that can be shared would be deeply appreaciated

When using the HDD I had virtualization enabled which allowed me to use Oracle VirtualBox.
when enabled on SSD I get a blank screen with no ability to boot into BIOS or Windows MBR

Virtualbox does not require hardware virtualization to be present in order to use. Have you tried using Virtualbox on the SSD with it disabled in the BIOS to see if it is even a problem for you, which it should not be except under very specific circumstances?

That is what I thought as well however in order for me to get virtualbox to work even on the original HDD I had to have virtualization enabled on my bios. The error code I get based on my understanding wants me to enable VIRTUALIZATION in my BIOS

Here is the exact error I get from VirtualBox

Failed to open a session for the virtual machine
Not in a hypervisor partition (HVP=0) (VERR_NEM_NOT_AVAILABLE).
AMD-V is disabled in the BIOS (or by the host OS) (VERR_SVM_DISABLED).

Well then, much as you probably don't want to have to do it, since you have the HDD still to get anything off if you need to, I would try doing a clean install on the SSD instead and see if you have the same problem when you enable virtualization.
