Enabling VT allows the emulator to get more computer resources to run apps or games. In order to ensure the smoothness of gaming experience on LDPlayer, VT must be enabled.
Enabling VT will not cause any harm to the computer. Sometimes you can't even launch LDPlayer when it is disabled. On the contrary, after VT is enabled, the emulator runs 10 times faster! No more FPS lag/stutter in various games.

Step 2: Enable VT in your BIOS settings
After you enter BIOS, press the ←, →, ↑ or ↓ key to switch from one item to another if you don't see your cursor on your screen. In addition, to press the Enter key will allow you to have one item selected.
Find the VT item which is usually named Intel(R) Virtualization Technology, Virtualization, Virtual, VT-X or SVM. In general, you can find it here: Advanced > Processor Configuration/Security.
Select Intel(R) Virtualization Technology and change to Enabled.
Last but not least, press the F10 key to save and exit
