[NotSupported] Graphics Problem with Android emulator

Post by DeMi »

I made a windows 7 virtual box and installed an android emulator to play games on it, but game graphics are not showing up. How do I use the onboard graphics to play the game on the virtual box? Help me please

If you're using a 3rd party Android emulator, you should talk to them. If you're using VirtualBox, 1) Android is not supported, 2) there is no way to use your host's GPU.

What exactly did you install and how?

And no, you can't use the host GPU.

Where is the VirtualBox connection in all of this?

So you have a Win7 VM? And you're trying to install the Android emulator? Not supported, no way, sorry...
