Android – While running android AVD manager it shows error “HAX kernel module is not installed!”

androidandroid-studioavdwindows 8

I'm facing problem in running the android AVD manager. While running, it shows an error message-

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!

But I've installed Intel x86 Emulator Accelerator (HAXM installer)

my laptop config:

  • Windows 8,
  • Intel Corei5 3210M 2.50GHz

Create emulator in CPU/ABI in ARM, this error only exist for the Intel processor.

If you want to create AVD CPU/ABI in Intel for this process. Make sure you have instaled HAXM installer on your SDK Manager.

After you download it make sure you run the setup located in: 

{SDK_FOLDER}\extras\intel\Hardware_Accelerated_Execution_Manager\intelhaxm.exe

If you get the error "VT not supported" during the installation, disable Hyper-V on windows features. You can execute this command:

dism.exe /Online /Disable-Feature:Microsoft-Hyper-V

You will also need "Virtualization Technology" to be enabled on your BIOS
