I had a number of problems starting my VM as well. Not sure what OS you're running on, but my primary dev machine is Windows Vista 64-bit. I was running into issues because I didn't have the environment variables set up. Try running these two commands from the command prompt:
SET PATH=%PATH%;c:\Java\android-sdk-windows\tools;c:\Java\android-sdk- windows\platform-tools SET ANDROID_SDK_HOME=c:\Java\android-sdk-windows Obviously, you should replace the path to whatever you have for your SDK installation.
