Android Studio Emulator not loading Windows 10

Question

I have a fresh install of android studio on Windows 10, with all the packages for android api 22. When I run the emulator I get the following message

C:\Users\admin\AppData\Local\Android\sdk\tools\emulator.exe -avd foo -netspeed full -netdelay none
emulator: device fd:928
HAX is working and emulator runs in fast virt mode

I can see the emulator in the task manager, but it doesn't actually load.

I've been looking for answers to why it doesn't load and I've made sure all the ram settings are correct, but I don't understand why the emulator won't load.

Thanks

HAXM, the Intel Android Virtualization Technology is incompatible with Hyper-V. Turn off Hyper-V and give it a go again. Hyper-V will often be installed if you have installed Visual Studio with Windows Phone tools.

Or from an admin command prompt run the following. Note to get an admin cmd prompt, right-mouse the windows icon, click Command Prompt (Admin ).

To turn off Hyper-V run this: bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype off and then reboot

To turn Hyper-V back on, run this: bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype auto And then reboot

You can turn off Hyper-V in the services menu (type "Services" in the Search thingy), and also use the Services menu to turn it back on. Even though it may not be necessary I still reboot after doing it this way.
