Do I need to upgrade my system in order to do Android Development?

Please tell me how to update my computer hardware or software.

I am just starting on this journey to develop Android Apps using Android studio.

While running the Android Studio Setup Wizard, it concluded with this error:

Unable to install Intel® HAXM
Unknown Error
Please file a bug against Android Studio.

Please help, advise or offer suggestions.

I have been told that this error is because my computer is old or that Virtualization Technology was not enabled. I checked Virtualization Technology and found it is enabled.

Here is the information I have. And it seems that VT is Eables. So, what is next? Please advise.

If you already have Microsoft HyperV enabled, then please disable that. Instructions are available here developer.android.com/studio/run/e...
