680 PointsHi Michael, I'm having a really similar problem, I've just now set up another AVD device though, with a much reduced Screen Size (A Nexus 4) and taken the RAM on the device down to 256 mb. At least I'm getting the "Android" logo now. Give that a try and see if you can get anywhere. Maybe we can work this out between us!

680 PointsCool, mine has just loaded fully, hope you get to this stage also. I Think its just having an old machine may mean I have to stick with crap emulators for now!
