Removing Hyper-V from Dell XPS 720

I installed Windows server 2012 and wanted to run Hyper-v on my *old* Dell XPS 720. I quickly found out that Hyper-V requires SLAT and VMX enabled in the processor. The XPS 720 does not have SLAT functionality. Therefore, when I rebooted, the Windows 2012 would not boot and kept recycling.

I was able to enter the recovery mode and to a command prompt. It appears that the recovery mode is booting from the recovery partition, which is a Windows PE. Regardless, the command that saved me from reinstalling was to uninstall the Hyper-v feature.

The command is"

DISM /Image:C:\ /Disable-Feature:Microsoft-Hyper-V
