I also have the same error. I've tried creating the AVD on the command line and via the gui in the Eclipse plugin. Both created the AVD with no problems, but the emulator still cannot find it.
I've tried running with the configuration set to Automatic, and to Manual and manually selecting Launch a new Android Virtual Device and checking the box next to 'my_avd', and the emulator still cannot find it. I know it exists, I can see it in "S:Documents and Settings \Phoenix\.android\avd\my_avd.avd" I've tried stopping and re-starting the ADB server, stopping and re- starting Eclipse... nothing has fixed it. This is on a new setup, just set up today. Eclipse Galileo, Android SDK 1.5_r3 for Windows, on XP.
