I have Windows 8.1 pro with an AMD processor. I installed the Android SDK and Eclipse. It works but the problem is that when I Create AVD and launch it shows this error:
emulator: ERROR: x86 emulation currently requires hardware acceleration!
Please ensure Intel HAXM is properly installed and usable.
CPU acceleration status: HAX kernel module is not installed!
I have already installed Intel Hardware_Accelerated_Execution_Manager and I have enabled Virtual modulation from the boot menu, but it's still not working.
First of all you should have Virtualization Enabled and you can do it from BIOS setting. After that go to Control Panel\Programs and Click on "Turn Windows features on or off" option. You will now have a pop up window, spot "Windows Hypervisor Platform" and enable it by checking the checkbox. Restart your PC and now AVD should work without any issue.
