Ventoy doesn't work on older CPUs

Relatively old processors are not supported.
I tested laptops with T-type pentiums, and also an MSI G31 board with Celeron E3300.
None of these would boot Ventoy, with the same error: "VT" and then hangs.

It's really sad, because Ventoy only boots on modern hardware.
I hope it can be made compatible, it's not fun having to carry around several USB drives.

Cheers.
Perhaps, it may not be true that Ventoy boots only in modern hardware.  Yes, it may be true that USB booting may not be supported in some old hardware as BIOS is not configured in that manner and hardware support also.  But we can make USB boot by using PLoP Boot Manager application.  Almost we can boot any ISO mentioned in the Ventoy site.
