Android AVD: Not starting OS, Black Screen Only

I formatted my PC, installed Windows 10, SDK and installed API 15 and 23 with build tools. After importing my application into Android Studio I created a new AVD, please see screenshot.

Screenshot - AVD Settings

I did not enable Use host GPU and the RAM is set to 1GB, with the HAXM RAM set to 2GB. I double checked the BIOS and Virtualization Settings are enabled. I have run the emulator from the command line using the following command:

emulator -avd Nexus_5_API_15 -netspeed full -netdelay none -debug-init -logcat '*:v'

There were no errors but it does seem to hang at:

emulator: UpdateChecker: skipped version check

I am currently quite frustrated and not sure how to resolve this issue. Can anyone please help.

Thank you guys in advance.

The first time you start the avd it always take a lot of time (could be a couple of minutes), did you close the avd too early?
