I just installed the HAXM from Intel and whenever I try to open now an emulator with Intel Atom x86 CPU the computer restarts.

I am running the laptop on OSX Mountain Lion

Anyone have any idea why is this happening?

  • The Ghost of Steve Jobs forbids you to develop Android on a Mac. Seriously though, have you opened up the "Console" app to see what the errors are? – Alan Feb 06 '13 at 18:20

  • IIRC there at least was some issue with the Android emulator and the screen resolution (or was it pixel density?) of retina display Macbooks. – Chris Stratton Feb 06 '13 at 19:08
  • Am using the MacBookPro for my android development i never go this problem but when you have this problem why cant you download a fresh copy of SDK and try again. – sukarno Feb 06 '13 at 19:09
