Hello, I need some help with Android Studio!

My question is when I try to run the AMD in Android Studio, I get and error in the console that reads, no hardware acceleration installed or RHD.

You need to get the hardware accelerator installed, I run the same OS as you but 32 bit, and I use Intel hardware accelerator you can find the download on google searching "Intel hardware accelerator " and download the right version for your OS.

Hope this helps
