Download the HAXM installer on the intel website and install

https://github.com/intel/haxm/releases

Windows

Run the haxm-7.6.6-setup.exe to install HAXM

Mac OS

I am not quite sure.

Check the version of andoid studio you have installed is it lower than what the render supports?

Because I also had the same issue and what solved it was just uninstalling the android studio I initally installed and installing the one that was compatible version wise.

My Old Installation that didn't work despite all my efforts, thinking my installed haxm was faulty or not working was

  • android-studio-bundle-141.2456560-windows

So I uninstalled the above and installed the one below before it started working.

  • android-studio-bundle-141.2117773-windows

Not really sure why that solved it even though the one i uninstalled seems to be more recent than that of the previous one. But that solved it and so it seems there are version compatibility issues. Hope that helps.

Try increasing the memory used by HAXM. You can find the guidelines in Configuring VM Acceleration on Windows section of this page: http://developer.android.com/tools/devices/emulator.html

You need to use an x86 system image like this one: enter image description here

You can download x86 images in the SDK manager (the one shown contains Google Play which is a bonus if you need to have it on your emulator).

enter image description here

The "errors" at the bottom of your window aren't errors. What you're seeing is a poorly designed key for what any icons that appear next to your devices may mean.

Do you perhaps need to create, not edit, an AVD?
