It used to work when i first installed it. Then I tried installing HAXM and it said my computer doesn't have VT-x (Intel Virtualization Technology). So i looked it up and it turns out my computer doesn't support VT-x. Now I want to run it without/ignoring the HAXM. But it keeps giving me this error:

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!

How do i just get it to run without trying to use the HAXM accelerator because i know my computer doesn't support it.

I even tried to uninstall the HAXM installer from the Android SDK manager. and it's still giving the same error.

Thanks in advance.

  • Did you upgrade your emulator? It looks like current versions of the android emulator require HAXM for x86 guests, and I don't think there's any way to downgrade, unfortunately. – fluffy Oct 26 '14 at 03:33

Fluffy is right. You now need HAXM for x86 images. I couldn't get HAXM installed either, and resorted to installing the Genymotion Android Emulator. It works great and is fast and is recommended on Xamarin's website.
