How much memory are you allocating for the AVD? Sometimes there are issues when you use up to 1 GB. Try reducing the memory to 512 MB or lower, and see if that helps. From Google: "On Windows, emulating RAM greater than 768M may fail... Try progressively smaller values of RAM if the emulator fails to launch."
