While running android AVD manager it shows error "HAX kernel module is not installed!"

Question

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

Answer 1

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

Answer 2

if you are running Intel processor make sure HAXM (Intel® Hardware Accelerated Execution Manager) installer is install via SDK Manager by checking this option in SDK Manager. and then run the HAXM installer ext via the path below

your_sdk_folder\extras\intel\Hardware_Accelerated_Execution_Manager\intelhaxm.exe
