Android Studio BSOD when running virtual device

When I attempt to start a virtual device the laptop crashes and I get a BSOD with the error: IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL. I opened up the crash log and I found the culprit to be:

MODULE_NAME: IntelHaxm

IMAGE_NAME:  IntelHaxm.sys

DEBUG_FLR_IMAGE_TIMESTAMP:  5cb6c325

STACK_COMMAND:  .thread ; .cxr ; kb

BUCKET_ID_FUNC_OFFSET:  28a8

FAILURE_BUCKET_ID:  AV_CODE_AV_IntelHaxm!unknown_function

BUCKET_ID:  AV_CODE_AV_IntelHaxm!unknown_function

PRIMARY_PROBLEM_CLASS:  AV_CODE_AV_IntelHaxm!unknown_function

Any suggestions on how to fix this?

If you have "Intell x 86 Emulator" to be sure that you use the actual version. Try to update it. if you use not the latest version there would be an updating available.

This happens when the IntelHaxm driver isn't properly installed. If VT-x is not enabled in the BIOS when Android Studio installs, Haxm will not setup properly.

If you then enable VT-x but not reinstall the driver, Android Studio will try to use the unconfigured driver and you'll get this crash.

To reinstall Haxm, go under Tools > SDK Manager and install it manually. (image ref)

There was also a version of the driver that had a bug that caused this. Make sure you Help > Check for Updates... so you have the latest edition. Be sure VT-x is enabled in the BIOS first.
