I need VD-T badly!

[Rasputine]

As expected (?), when I enable VT-D on my bios Mavericks doesn't finish loading.

However, I need VT-D badly to run an Android emulator and test my apps. (without it they are simply too slow to event consider using)

Any idea? VirtualBox, VMWare as anyone been able to run one on top of a OSX86 machine?

Thanks!

First, we need info on your hardware, mainboard, processor etc.
Second, some processors allow VT-d and some do not. Are you sure you are no confusing VT-d with VT-x?

Look at this post for some background info that might be helpful: http://www.tonymacx86.com/buying-ad...ver-need-versus-intel-hd-graphics-4000-a.html

(BTW - VD is something you don't want to catch )

You are correct, my bad. And I have solved my problem!

[FONT=Arial, Liberation Sans, DejaVu Sans, sans-serif]HAXM was crashing my system and as it needs VT I though that was the problem. But in the end it was an issue with the OSX version [/FONT]10.9.

Seems like [FONT=Arial, Liberation Sans, DejaVu Sans, sans-serif]Intel has now released a hotfix for the Intel® Hardware Accelerated Execution Manager (HAXM) on OS X 10.9.[/FONT]

[FONT=Arial, Liberation Sans, DejaVu Sans, sans-serif]Downloaded and all is working just fine now. Thanks.
