I made a new Android Application Project in Eclipse and when I finish I get the error message as shown in image. How could this be resolved?

Can you copy the text of the error messages and paste it here so it can be copied for searching and responses?

Pass this to Google:

Error retrieving parent for item: No resource found that matches the given name 'Theme.AppCompat.Light'.  


SO has threads on that topic.

Also go to the Android site and enter the name of thw theme: https://developer.android.com/reference/packages.html

One of the pages returned: https://developer.android.com/training/appbar/setting-up.html

Sorry, I have no experience with that Android emulator.  I use Oracle's VirtualBox with Android VMs from GennyMotion for testing.

For the second time, please do NOT post images of the error. Copy past the stack trace.

To solve your current problem
1) Select AVD
2) Edit
3) Uncheck "Use Host GPU"
4) Start AVD

There is some issue with directory structure, can that be resolved?

The error shows both /\ slashes at same place.
