I installed an emulator so I can play games on my pc and not have to multitask two devices when playing. The performance is really poor and I'm recommended to enable Intel Virtualization.
So, I checked if my CPU (Intel i5-7400T) supports it on Intel's official list and it does, however in BIOS' advanced options there were only 4 options, none of which were CPU configuration related. I downloaded the latest drives from my pc's manufacturer but to no avail, I still can't get it to work.

What is going on and how do I fix it? Is it even possible to enable virtualization at this point?

A 7400T could be in a laptop or desktop. Is this a laptop ? BIOS options are limited in a laptop.
