Trying to set up Android Emulators, you may get an error for VT-X not enabled

I was trying to set up Android Emulator on my Lenovo thinkpad and kept getting the annoying VT-X not enabled error. You would get this once you try to launch your application in an emulator.

                                                   


What the error means : Virtualization is supported by all modern age processors, however it may not be enabled by default on you system. Reason why you can get the above error.

Fixing this fortunately is straight forward.


  1. Reboot your computer and go to BIOS page.
  2. Enter the BIOS utility screen


  3. Select Virtualization from Security Tab
  4. From CPU setup, enable all the options which you find disabled.
  5. Press F10 to Save and Exit.

After fixing this, emulator should load cleanly. Good Luck with those apps :)
