Any way to have hardware accelerated virtualization without changing HW?

Question

when I installed Android Studio on my Windows box, at the end of installation it told me
"Android SDK is up to date"
but it complained that
"your computer does not support hardware accelerated virtualization".
Then it listed some alternative options. Looks like this is because my native HW has non-Intel (AMD) CPUs.



So my question to Android developers is,
does anyone know of a way to have hardware accelerated virtualization without changing my PC hardware?

Answer

Basically you can't.

Your best bet would be a Virtual Machine in VirtualBox but this is more like hoping for it to work and not break after installing.



The reason is Intel HAXM that is building on Intel's virtualization technology, VirtualBox also supports AMD's virtualization technology and should be better than using no hardware acceleration at all.
