Even I faced this problem initially. The emulator would not even come up. I has hw.ramSize: 1024 What I did was when I boot windows, I first open the emulator by using the avd manager from command line. Only then I start my other applications, otherwise windows does not allocated memory to emulator and the emulator does not come up. But since I use 1gb of ram for emulator, my windows runs very slow. So I had to bargain with windows and emulator.
I have 3gb of ram, since I develop and test on the same machine, I use hw.ramSize: 768 as the ram size for emulator. There is no minimum ram specified for emulator as far as I know (correct me if I am wrong). What you do is experiment with your ram size parameter from 256, 512, 768..., and also do not start any applications when you start windows, start the emulator first and then other applications. See which setting is best for the emulator and windows.
