Hello can I state than any dual core provessor can do full virtualisation?
no. not if you mean hardware-virtualization-technologies. there are pentium dual-cores for example, which are, of course dual core processors, but don't have hardware-virtualization-technologies.
Also, it requires BIOS support as I understand it.
Yes, I recently set up a VM server (FSC Primergy RX300S3 with 12 GB RAM and 2 Quad Core CPUs 1.6 Ghz. At the moment I've got 7 VMs running (most rather low usage), and overall the CPU utilisation is staying in the low one digit range. The BIOS had a setting for the virtualisation functions (disabled by default) called Vanderpool-something which I enabled. At the moment it looks as if I will run out of RAM much sooner than get into any trouble because of CPU/hdd usage. Though the server is running under Windows 2003 64bit. -- Sandy List replies only please!
