Post by applepie123123 »

Hello dears

.
I have tried countless solutions like enabling my 3d acceleration and changing the graphics controller but no point and don't tell me about enabling the virtualization because i already tried that I hope someone helps me with this problem and thanks.
Down below you'll see also my log in case you need it

Host RAM is overprovisioned:
00:00:08.785173 Host RAM: 3069MB (2.9GB) total, 825MB available
00:00:09.419564 RamSize <integer> = 0x0000000040000000 (1 073 741 824, 1 024 MB)
00:00:09.420008 VRamSize <integer> = 0x0000000008000000 (134 217 728, 128 MB)
This host PC is severely restricted in ability to run VMs, especially so with it running Windows 10 as a host.

See Mpack's Android recipe here: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=92683&start=15#p464073 except try 512MB for the VM.

Thanks for your response on such short notice.
Unfortunately, still no luck, and this is the log after trying what you said.

Thanks for the new log. One thing I see, though I don't know if it is important:
the log wrote:00:00:09.344590 Guest OS type: 'Oracle_64'
Mpack's recipe wrote:OS type: Linux
OS version: Linux 2.6 / 3.x / 4.x (64bit)
Could also be too old a CPU: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=92683&start=30#p475784

your CPU:
00:00:11.183350 Full Name: "Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU E6750 @ 2.66GHz"

I believe the "Core 2 Duo E6750" is the CPU I had in my PC when I first started using VirtualBox. It has VT-x. It should be capable of running VMs though with reduced performance.

Android is not one thing. It's more like Linux with multiple distros except that each guy (device manufacturer) has their own distro.

The solution I posted before was for a specific build of Android. Most Android distros are not properly designed for PCs and will not work (a PC is more than just an x86 CPU).
