SDK error: Device not found.

[tendemo]

Hello, everyone and I would like to say an extra hello as Im a newbie on this platform and plead with you to understand my handicaps in that light as such.

My goal was to install an apk file on a windows environment and launch from an emulator.

Regarding the above mentioned issue before getting there, I would like to give a trend of events.

1) I first of all when doing a

adb install blahblahbla.apk

and ended up with an error stating that the adb command was not known.

I resolved that by changing the path of the adb.

2) Then I made another attempt, I got a

* daemon not running. starting it now on port blahblah *
* daemon started successfully *
error: device not found

Now, I had both the SDK and AVD running when doing this, I also had a emulator up and running. What Ive noticed is that I have given my emulator a memory of about 512 MB while at the same time, this emulator is not linked to any SD card , or virtual drive or even USB drive !

Could that be my silly issue and if so how can I allocate a virtual drive to the AVD ?

Thanks
