No, there is no BIOS option which indicates HPET support. But the
BIOS on my system is IMHO very very bad. It knows nothing about the
features on the board. Is ist crucial to have here BIOS support? Or
can these features be enabled by e.g. boot parameters?
Hi,
afaik, there needs to be h/w support enabled [via bios] as hpet is a hardware
feature.
Without h/w enablement, the kernel can't do much.

Hello,
does anyone have a hint how to enable High resolution timers on my
system (with a Intel ICH2 (which has afaik 8254 Timers). Is this
hardware not enough for hr-timers?
Check your BIOS settings.
If your h/w supports HPET, there should be an option in the BIOS to turn it
on.
