I'm using AMD/Leo 10.5.6/Voodoo v1.0

I'm not able to install Parallels. It just reports that "Parallels Desktop can be installed only on systems supporting hardware virtualization.".

There is no option in my BIOS to turn on virtualization. I'm using Asus A8N-E mobo.

Any idea?

it did work in 10.5.5
 
I had parallels working wit voodoo 1.0 and mac osx 10.5.5. on the asus a8n sli premium but when i updated to 10.5.6. it didn't work anymore so if this is important to you you could go back to 10.5.5. (or reinstall) hope this helps or somebody could tell us why i would work in 10.5.5. and not in 10.5.6.

I hope next Voodoo version will solve this.

If you had bothered to read before posting you'd see that two posts above you gipo posted:

Anywho I'll be testing parallels to see how it goes I'll check back in a few days.

It does NOT work with Voodoo 9.5.0 - 1.0 Final.

I think that's because the AMD K8/K9 series on Socket 939 and older AM2 cpu's don't support hardware virtualization.

Yes I read all the posts about this issue. Apart from him/her mentioning that it was successful, the person did not write what hardware they have nor what they did to install it. That is why I mentioned what hardware I am using so if anyone else with the same specs got it to install, they would maybe share how they did it.

Ive done it with no problem. i have an amd dual core 64 bit 6000+ it runs at 3.1ghz. i didnt have to do anything special i just installed it and it works fine. I am running virtual systems of windows 98 windows xp windows vista 64 bit and windows 7 64 bit. the only problem i have is that it doesnt recognize my graphics card but i think that is an issue with using an ATI cards for osx86 and i am using the voodoo kernel
