Unfortunately, such a small setting for SD card size is not always an option. It has already been pointed out by others in this forum, for example, that to get the Google Maps examples (from the tutorial etc) to run, you need an SD card greater than 8M. I use 10M for each AVD intended for use with Google Maps.
And I know it has been said often enough already, but I will say it again, because it is such an important point: because the emulator is so slow to load, it really is a good idea to load it once and keep it running for as long as you can, quitting and reloading only as a last resort. Unless, of course, it really is true that your system gets slower and slower the longer you do this. But that is unusual. If that is really what is happening, then yes, you need to check your system settings to make sure enough real, physical memory is allocated to the emulator. And be moderate with SD card size. 10M should do fine, smaller if Google Maps not needed. On Feb 8, 5:20 pm, BobG <[email protected]> wrote: > Check the pagefile size in task manager.

Like a couple meg instead of a gig. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Beginners" group. NEW!
