I already tried doing this. Genymotion refuses to start with "The Genymotion virtual device could not get an IP address." but nothing happend. And also here Not able to start Genymotion device.

Is it me? Who is being forsaken? Or is it my Lenovo laptop who's specs are just
AMD-E1 Dual Core 1.0ghz (But I can run VS Studio 2013 just fine)
4gb RAM
Windows 8.1

But I found something weird. in most of the tutorial here in stackoverflow. in the File -> Preference -> Network the host-only network is vboxnet0 whilst on me it is VirtualBox Host-Only Ethernet Adapter I tried checking the Adapter and DHCP settings nothing is wrong.
Here is a printscreen when I try running it in Virtualbox Something

I also struggled a few days fixing this issue. In my case, I restart the computer and enable the virtualization technology in BIOS. Then start up computer, open VM Virtual Box, choose a virtual device, go to Settings-General-Basic-Version, choose ubuntu(64 bit), save the settings then start virtual device from genymotion, everything is ok now.
