Same problem here ... followed the above instructions to the letter,

The above suggested steps did not work for me. Using Windows 7 x64. Tried changing WM70Full.bin to WM70C1.en-US.bin and placing it in C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows Phone\v7.0\Emulation\Images (renaming the file already in there) - got a message "Windows Phone emulator is doing a complete OS boot" ... now just waiting

Okay instead of all the run around that the instructions give you just click on the bin file once you've extracted and it will ask you to select a program to open with.. just navigate to the XDE.exe file and click that then viola thats it!

The article comment 'more than perfect' about the performance shouldnt be made when emulating o mobile's os on a pc. The UI looks nice though.

Looks prety promissing. Works really really slow on a core2duo with 4 gigs of ram.. i don't know what's the deal with the emulator, but I really look forward to see it in action on a real handset. Nice work this time MS! Untill then, i'll feast my eyes/hands with "Rachael" ;)
