Android Virtual Device (AVD) can't run in Android Studio | HAXM can't be installed properly


Installing android virtual device (AVD) with Intel HAXM support

Installing HAXM via android studio sdk manager gives no error.. but in AVD Manager, an error displayed - "/dev/kvm is not found" and hence doesn't allow me to run AVD

Installing HAXM(6.1.2) by downloading from intel official website gives me an error "Failed to configure driver: unknown error. Failed to open driver" which I tried to resolve using this solution given on intel blog : https://software.intel.com/en-us/blogs/2013/04/25/workaround-patch-for-haxm-installation-error-failed-to-configure-driver-unknown But still this is not working for me as comments shows for few people it is not working too..

Now, Clicking on green run button gives me same error in addition it displays something more related to "enable Intel VT-x from bios" Now, in my computer's bios settings.. there is no VT-x but just "Intel VT" feature that I enabled.. but still no difference.. same error message.. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling android studio and AVD.. still no solution

My PC config is : 4gb ram ddr3 Intel i3 550 3.20 ghz BIOS version TCIBX10H.86A.0037 (not updated - latest firmware is TCIBX10H.86A.0048) Intel hd graphics 500gb hdd Windows 7 32bit

PS: 1. Hyper-v is not installed on my computer (may be not supported or Windows need to be installed, I never tried to install it myself) 2. There is no virtual box installed either 3. Sorry for bad english and I'm new to android development also
