Hello,

Are you not able to start the emulator on its own or only when you're trying to run your app?

If this is when trying to run your app, could you please post your code so that we can help you further?

Could you try creating a new emulator device with a smaller screen size and give it a lower RAM size?

Also, if that doesn't work, a couple of other settings to try are to toggle the Use Host GPU setting, increase the RAM size(mixed reports on which way could fix it),
