    • @sainaren:disqus Use the torrent download to install it and it should work. The black screen is coming up because of incomplete installation. At the moment, the Source-Forge and other mirror links provided by Jide are not working properly. Torrent download works perfectly well.

  1. Same with me, all I’m getting is black screen when I open it.
    I did what you said, used torrent, installed it perfectly.. I’m not getting any ‘errors’, just black screen.

    What to do?

  2. Unfortunately, I am unable to install HAXM as my computer does not support Intel Virtualization Technology (VT-x). Most likely cause my CPU is AMD not Intel Which begs the question, how can I even run Remix OS as a Second OS on my computer if I don’t have an Intel CPU?

    • @PixelODeath:disqus I gues Remix OS Player doesn’t support AMD CPUs as of yet. We will update this post if Jide releases an AMD supported Remix OS Player.

  3. Hello. I have version 3, everything runs smooth, my favorite game is VainGlory, the issue im having is many times during gameplay the mouse IN THE GAME AREA stops touching/clicking, its able to touch everywhere else apart from the game and only when i restart the game does it work again but only for a short time before the same problem occurs again. Anyone experiencing this? Since Vainglory is an online game you can understand why this can be frustrating.

  4. How do I get more storage space in Remix OS Player? I know how to do this in Remix OS for PC, but the procedure will not work for the VM.

    I checked my storage space in Remix OS Player, and there is only a maximum of 3.75 GB. That is not even the same space a $40 no-name-brand Android tablet has (4GB). I want to increase the space to 64GB…

    …Once more, in their next upgrade, they should consider extending the RAM allocation option to 4GB (up from 3GB maximum). Most high-end machines have at least 16GB, and 12GB+ is more than enough space to run everything else while you are using 4GB for Remix OS Player.

  5. The remix os player setup starts at first and then a message comes , “Checking HAXM Installation” ,then the window Closes What to Do??

    • emulator: ERROR: x86_64 emulation currently requires hardware acceleration!
      Please ensure Intel HAXM is properly installed and usable.
      CPU acceleration status: Unable to open HAXM device: ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND

      Go to RemixOSPlayer folder > remixemu > haxm-windows_v6_0_3 > run intelhaxm-android > select your desired RAM amount and complete the procedure.
      Try launching RemixOSPlayer.exe again and it should work this time.
