Android Virtual Device & Intel HAXM

I've just set up a new PC with Android Studio, and can't launch any Virtual Devices. When I start a device I get the message-

Starting emulator for AVD 'Nexus_5_API_21_x86'
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!

When I run the HAXM installer, it says 

This computer meets the requirements for haxm but intel virtualization is not turned on

But in BIOS its definately ticked as being ON.

Any ideas why I can't get it working ? Thanks.

  • 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

    (in username : please enter valid user name)

    install it and restart your Android Studio.

    if you make few changes on above process it is same for win 7 and also same for eclipse

so some antivirus prevent HAXM running, and make sure you don't have Windows Hypervisor running. (Under programs list, windows, under H).

It could be you need to set your NX (XD) bit to on. As admin run from command line: bcdedit /set nx AlwaysOn Otherwise what is your CPU?
