I want to work with 1024MB or greater RAM sizes, but when I try to start my Virtual Device, I receive this error:

Failed to allocate memory: 8

After research, some solutions which did not work for me are:

System specifications:

  • 64bit Windows 7 64Bit
  • i7 3610QM CPU
  • 8GB RAM
  • 2GB Graphic card

Am using Android 4.2

You should try to change you Emulator - if its Version is 20.

Here is a link that describes the problem: Emulator stops working after upgrading to version 20

Update

I have found also this link: Android Virtual Device (AVD) Emulator stopped working - its interesting, that in comments one user post follows: "Thought you might be interested to know, on my system I have 8gb of RAM, yet I was unable to set the Device ram size to 2048, but when lowering it to 1024 it worked."

Maybe the RAM managemetn is generally the problem for some Android SDK.
