I want to enable Hyper-V in Windows Features, but there is no Hyper-V option

Question

I am very very confused about this. I have a Sony Vaio I7 laptop (There is a Hyper-V setting in bios, so I am easy to enable Hyper-V)

I want to develop Windows Phone 8. I have read this guide from Microsoft but even if I enable Hyper-V in bios, Windows Feature does not show Hyper-V option like MSDN guide.

(At first there is Hyper-V in windows feature but I don't know Hyper-V missing lately)

Any help will be appreciated. Thank you friends.

You never explicitly say what version of windows you are using. — Scott Chamberlain, Nov 18 '13 at 16:19
What is the version of the OS? Is this Windows 8 Pro x64? You also need a CPU that supports SLAT. — ken2k, Nov 18 '13 at 16:19
You're using Windows 8 basic, which doesn't have the option present? — Anya Shenanigans, Nov 18 '13 at 16:25

If someone is having this problem of missing tickbox on Windows 7 Pro, it can be solved by installing

Only problem your Hyper-V is not running is because you Don't have the Windows 8 Pro version of the window. So get that first.
