The CPU is listed as a Pentium T4500, which is a processor from 2010-ish using 
the Penryn-L microarchitecture.

Intel processors in that market segment didn't have virtualization support 
features until 2012/2013-ish with the introduction of the Ivy Bridge 
microarchitecture.

So the likely reason that your BIOS does not have virtualization support is 
because your hardware just doesn't support it. That doesn't mean you can't use 
virtualization at all, but it does mean that what virtualization software you 
can use and what operating systems you can run under virtualization will be 
limited. For example, my old 2009-era Core 2 Duo laptop can't run 64-bit 
operating systems under virtualization, but VirtualBox can handle 32-bit OSes 
just fine.
