Default How can I tell if my CPU suppurts hardware virtualization?

Hello, I want to use my Creative Labs Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS PCI
card using windows XP mode. The onboard sound wont let me do 5.1
analog speakers (just 7.1 which I don't have), Creative Labs Sound
Blaster Audigy 2 ZS can do 5.1. but windows reps say my CPU must
support hardware virtualization before I can use XP mode.

Here is my CPU: AMD Athlon(tm) II X2 255 Processor
Motherboard Name Gigabyte GA-880GM-UD2H

Using AIDA 64/CPUID/ features,
I found "Virtual Mode Extension Supported". Is this hardware
virtualization?
TIA!
