I have install the Intel® Hardware Accelerated Execution Manager (Intel® HAXM) from SDK tools (I needed to enhanced the AVD Android virtual device on my eclipse) and then I lunched the exe file to install on my device so I get an error telling me that
the computer meets the requirements but Intel Virtualization Technology VT-x is not turned on. Please turned the VT-x on and then reinstall HAXM.
I searched about this and I found that I should change a BIOS setting for Intel from disabled to enabled:
Virtualization Technology <Enabled>
I have HP laptop I went to the BIOS and change this and save start (windows 8) again and reinstall the HAXM but same error shown again. Should I do something else to make this work ?

Goto setting -> change pc settings-> general->then see on right side by scrolling the frame down-> you will see under advance start up restart now button press it->then choose an option window will open->choose troubleshoot->under troubleshoot choose Advance option->then under Advance options choose UEFI Firmware option->then press restart->press f10 for BIOS->see the menubar where you will find system configuration menu inside it you will see the virtualization Technology "enable" it ->now go for exit saving changes in exit on menu bar..
C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Android\sdk\extras\intel\Hardware_Accelerated_Execution_Manager\intelhaxm-android.exe

install it and restart your Android Studio.
if you make few changes on above process, they are same for win 7 or above and also same for eclipse have fun!!

I've seen some cases with HP, where restarting didn't help. We needed to power off the PC or event take out the battery from a notebook. Hope this helps.

It could be that you have installed Hyper-V, that makes running other VTx applications harder. But I doubt that's the case.
Try running HWINFO32/64 and see if the VTx flag is detected.
