ok, first the "could not find \tools\adb.exe" error message indicates that you did not setup your SDK installation path in the plugin's preferences panel. that's why the plugin is searching the root directory for the adb executable (and doesn't find it). this should be unrelated to your restart.
a hard reboot is a nasty thing that can only be generated by a flaky hardware or driver. it's difficult to know why here, but one difference between the M5 and M3 emulator binaries is that the former tries to open the Windows wave input at startup to implement audio recording (this feature is however still broken in M5 for reasons to lenghty to explain there). maybe this is triggering something in your system. can you try starting the emulator from the command-line with "emulator -noaudio" to see if this changes anything ?
