I have to create windows phone 7 or 8. I installed visual studio 2013. It came with windows phone SDK.

I have problem. I have Windows 8.1 pro OS. But my processor does not support Hyper-V platform. I did enable BIOS settings. Even though i did not get this.

Any alternative way to test or debug app in emulator.

Any idea or suggestion should help me a lot.

Thanks in advance.

The best alternative would be to test your app on an actual device (this does not require Hyper-V). For more information have a look at this discussion.

Not the most convenient way, but simple and it's working:

You need to register account at developer.nokia.com and follow this link http://developer.nokia.com/resources/remote-device-access. You'll find list of devices that you can use for testing your apps. Just choose one of them and reserve it and use it as you want! This video may help you to start: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z-GbgPnTSxI&sns=tw
