Android: Your CPU does not support VT-x

Your CPU does not support VT-x. Intel HAXM is required to run this AVD. Your CPU does not support VT-x.

Unfortunately, your computer does not support hardware accelerated virtualization. Here are some of your options: 1) Use a physical device for testing 2) Develop on a Windows/OSX computer with an Intel processor that supports VT-x and NX 3) Develop on a Linux computer that supports VT-x or SVM 4) Use an Android Virtual Device based on an ARM system image (This is 10x slower than hardware accelerated virtualization)

What do I do to get around this limitation?

How do you fix your CPU does not support VT-X?

Your CPU is Intel® Core™2 Duo Processor E7300, which according to the manufacturer does not support Intel Virtualization Technology (VT-x). That's the reason for this error. The workaround is to use an alternative Android Emulator, e.g. Genymotion, as already suggested. Save this answer.

Should I enable VT for Android emulator?

Enabling VT allows the emulator to get more computer resources to run apps or games. In order to ensure the smoothness of gaming experience on LDPlayer, VT must be enabled. Enabling VT will not cause any harm to the computer.

According to Android Documentation, to run an emulator the development system's CPU should support one of the following virtualization extensions technologies:

  • Intel Virtualization Technology (VT, VT-x, vmx)
  • AMD Virtualization (AMD-V, SVM) -- only supported for Linux

Your CPU is Intel Pentium B940, which according to the manufacturer does not support Intel Virtualization Technology (VT-x). That's the reason for this error.

The workaround is to use an alternative Android Emulator, e.g. Genymotion.
