OK, I got the VirtualBox software going, but I really wanted to get
OS/2 going.  When I launched the VM, I got the warning...

  I ignored it and went into the OS/2 install.  You will be glad to know
that Reiserfs managed to recover nicely, without any data loss, after I
totally locked up my machine <G>.  When I say totally locked up, not
even the Magic SysReq Key got any response.

  There doesn't seem to be anything in my Dell's BIOS setup about VT-x.
Is there any software that can probe the BIOS and enable VT-x, assuming
it exists?  If not, I'm out of luck for OS/2 on this machine.
