Bluestacks is an Android Emulator ( Android Virtual Device (AVD) ) which allows you to play, edit, test, call, or anything else you would do in your actual phone but this time on your PC. This Bluestacks version works flawlessly without using the Virtualization Technology. Hence if you can’t enable your VT Engine System, then this program is made for your PC.

512 MB Storage
1 GB RAM

To install Bluestacks, you must run the installer BlueStacks 0.10.7.5601 with administrator rights. Accept the terms and proceed with the installation, select the destination folder and click OK. Deselect the App Store Access and Application Communications and install the app.

When the installation finish, run the Play Store app, register a new Google Account or sign in with your existing information. After the login, update your apps and games.
Problems and Solutions
Can I update the software to a newer version?
Do not update the software because (Bluestacks version 2 and 3) require Virtualization Technology to be enabled after the update. And the surroundings are vastly different from this one.
When I’m running an app, my screen goes black, why?
Black screen means your GPU or a specific App from the Bluestacks it’s not working properly. You must update your CPU and GPU driver, if you have laptop you must update first your CPU driver because GPU driver can’t be activate if CPU graphic driver is not installed.
