error message “qemu-system-i386.exe has stopped wo

Question

I am using windows 7 with 4GB of RAM and I'm using the latest version of android studio 2.2.3 and I am getting this message when I run the emulator

"qemu-system-i386.exe has stopped working"

I tried minimizing ram and resolution and it didn't work, also haxm is installed, could you please help me with this issue?

Answer 1

I had the same issue solved it by changing the Emulated Performance to Software GLES-2.0,I saw previous post and tried using Host GPU but since that option is not available in my Android Studio(2.2.3). I tried this and it worked

Answer 2

I am on Windows 7 X64, 4gb of RAM with dual core. Studio 2.3.3 I'll avoid studio emulator, Rather go with CMD.

You will get the ERROR why qemu-system-i386.exe has stopped working

My ERROR:

emulator: ERROR: Could not initialize OpenglES emulation, use '-gpu off' to disable it.

then USE command:

emulator.exe @YourAVDName -gpu off

Answer 3

I had this problem occur after using the same emulator for a while with no issues. What solved it for me was in AVD Manager > Actions select:

1) Wipe data

2) Cold boot.
