I’m trying to start an emulator, but I keep getting the error Failed to allocate memory: 8.

There are some solutions to this problem, setting the RAM from 1024 to 512, but when I even set it to 8 it still crashes with this error!

What should I do?

Screenshot of the settings:

Here the error message Windows gives of the crashed emulator-arm.exe:

The last time I checked and the emulator worked was before updating to ADT 20 and before deleting all old AVD’s.

    I’ve had problems like this. The only way to fix it was to set it to either 256, 512 or 1024. I have no idea why it won’t work with any random value.
