Lenovo ThinkPad T400 virtualization fails despite BIOS set

I have a Lenovo ThinkPad T400 with the BIOS version 2.16 7VET6WW dated
2009-04-22 with system board vf27k9434tj and the Intel P8600 CPU.

I try to set up virtualization with VirtualBox 4.3.12 r93733 installed
from Synaptic on Linux Mint Cinnamon 17 'Quiana' 64-bit, but
VirtualBox tells me I do not have VT-d enabled, even though it is
enabled in the BIOS, and I have cycled power since changing the BIOS.

No supervisor password is set. The RAM matches, a pair of 2GB modules.
Those were proven to be important issues on other sites.

How can I get virtualization to permit use of multiple CPUs?

Thank you kindly.
