Try changing the ADB connection timeout. I think it defaults that to 5000ms and I changed mine to 10000ms to get rid of that problem. If you are in Eclipse, you can do this by going through Window -> Preferences and then it is in DDMS under Android.

It's not uncommon for an AVD to be born (or become) corrupt/misbehaving. The solution for that is to make a new AVD (with same settings) and delete the corrupt/misbehaving one.

Another possible problem is AVDs can eat up a lot of your CPU, so if your system is already in struggle-town, chances of AVD booting and running nicely is slim.
