Beginner - Can't get app to deploy to Android emulator on AMD processor

Hi,
I have VS 2017 on Windows 10 and I'm trying to just run a newly created Xamarin.Forms app. in the Android emulator. I have an AMD processor. I also have Hyper-V. The emulator seems to load, but the app. never deploys on it. I've tried using the SDK Manager to install different versions of the tools with no success. What am I missing? Thanks for your time.
