1Use GenyMotion: genymotion.com. – Jared Burrows Mar 24 '15 at 19:24

1Are you sure that HAXM is working? When you launch your emulator, does the Run view (docked in Android Studio by default towards the lower-left corner) indicate that HAX is working or not working? – CommonsWare Mar 24 '15 at 19:28

Don't use the emulator. Use a real device. – Floris Mar 24 '15 at 19:43

@CommonsWare If HAXM isn't working you can't start the emulator in Android Studio. – The incredible Jan May 09 '17 at 08:36

@TheincredibleJan: While that is the case today, I do not think that was the case over two years ago, when I made that comment. There was a period of time where if HAXM was not installed, you would be able to run the emulator, but it would be very slow. – CommonsWare May 09 '17 at 11:34

In my case the problem was Avast's "Hardware assisted Virtualization". When I disabled it by going to Avast>Settings>Troubleshooting>Uncheck "Enable hardware-assisted virtualization" and rebooted the PC emulator became super fast and responsive.
Uncheck "Enable hardware-assisted virtualization" from Avast>Settings>Troubleshooting
Reason: Only one software can use VT-x at a time. This is the reason why we have to disable Hyper-V before using HAXM.
If you are using another anti-virus or some software that is using Hardware virtualization feature, try disabling it.

I`m have same issue (i5, integrated video, W10x64), and today was found a way to fix: add "-gpu guest" parameter to emulator.exe
Unfortunately, it should be started from a .bat file or command prompt.
Whole launch string look like
emulator @avd_name -accel on -gpu guest
Hope this helps

After the download from the SDK manager you have to launch the IntelHAXM.exe that you can find inside the Android SDK manager folder, precisely in
extras/intel/Hardware_Accelerated_Execution_Manager
