The best suggestion I have is to try and load a different version: if you used ARM, try x86. Also be patient, mine takes about 10 minutes to load. Upgrading your PC will help. There are also 3rd party emulators you can get as well as plugging your android device into your computer and using your android device.

I increased my the RAM to 8gb and that helped a ton. Also I would suggest using genymotion, as it is much faster than the AVD in my opinion.
