Step 1. (Windows 7 Only... 64-bit version Tested) Go to your start menu, then open the Control Panel.Click System and Security, click System, then open up the Advanced System Settings (on the left). Go to the Advanced Tab, then click Environment Variables.Check your user variables.

If you don't, find A variable named ANDROID_SDK_HOME with the Value, click new. In the Variable Name box, type in "ANDROID_SDK_HOME" (Without quotes).

In the Variable Value, type in something like c:/Users/jorge/AppData/Local/Android/Android-sdk. Click OK.Then click OK. Click OK again. Close the Control Panel and restart your computer.

Try Running SDK or AVD Manager(s) again. Create an AVD and run it.
