API Level 16 For SD card > size: you can enter 100 Mib (which is more than enough for most lightweight projects your working on) Lastly click create AVD

Should like something like this.

STARTING THE AVD (ANDROID VIRTUAL DEVICE) The AVD can now be started Select Test and press Start

STARTING THE AVD (CONTINUED) Press the Launch button

LOADING THE AVD 1 STEP

LOADING THE AVD STEP 2 STILL WILL TAKE A SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNT OF TIME 30 SECONDS TO 5 MINUTES You will want to keep the emulator (AVD) running during your Android development, so you only have to wait once. If you connect your Android-enabled device (phone/tablet), you can avoid this entire process.

LOADING AVD STEP 3 Continue to wait (My 2.8 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo with 4 GB of RAM took 3 minutes to load) SUCCESS!! Use your mouse to click the OK button and then press the home button (looks like a house)

SUMMARY You are ready to start developing in Android We have completed the following: Installed Eclipse (if necessary) Installed Android Software Development Kit (SDK) Install the JDK 7u9 if necessary Installed Android plug-ins in Eclipse Created an Android Virtual Device (AVD) Started an Android Virtual Device (AVD)
