Android Emulator hang up and impossible to quit

I've installed the Android plugin on Eclipse 3.6 in a regular way (aka i followed step by step the google installation page).

When I launch any sample application, everything works fine, but if I try to quit the emulator (by clicking the exit cross button of the emulator), the emulator seems to hang completly.

What is very bothering is that I can't even kill the process, launch another emulator or even reboot my pc, since the process seems to be impossible to stop or kill.

Does anyone have similar problem, and a solution to give?

Why is emulator not responding?

If the Android Emulator does not start properly, this problem is often caused by problems with HAXM. HAXM issues are often the result of conflicts with other virtualization technologies, incorrect settings, or an out-of-date HAXM driver. Try reinstalling the HAXM driver, using the steps detailed in Installing HAXM.

I have seen this issue with the emulator when running Linux on some machines. That problem was related to the audio and could be helped by setting the -noaudio option when launching the emulator.

You can add emulator options in preferences-Android-Launch in eclipse. Just add -noaudio to the "default emulator options" field.
