To solve your issue make sure you have installed HAXM installer on your SDK Manager.

However I really do recommend you download Genymotion. It's faster, easier to work with and is preferred by the majority. Even Treehouse has a course about it. Make sure to check it out. I promise you're gonna love that emulator and so will your PC.
