The correct command should be emulator -avd myAvdName -partition-size 500 (-avd instead of avd). Note that partition size is in megabytes.

You are passing wrong parameters to the emulator command (should be -avd and not just avd. Please check official documentation at:
http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/tools/emulator.html

Also checkout following post for detailed instructions how to run emulator:

I've only used it on Linux, not Windows, but I think it should still be:

emulator -avd "A" -partition-size 500

(You forgot the hyphen before avd.)
