Treehouse TeacherYes, tell us more about your problem. Does the emulator window open? What does it look like? On older computers it may take a while to start up (and may appear frozen). If the word "Android" is showing with the light flashing across it (like in the video) then that means it's working and you may just need to give it more time.
If nothing shows up, do you get any error messages inside Eclipse? You would want to look near the bottom. You'll be looking for the Console, and error messages about the emulator will appear in the "DDMS" view (you may need to switch).
