New User Woes - Slow Build, Black Screen

$

Hello forums! I am new user to Xamarin and vs2017, and with that I have 2 newbie questions. I installed VS Community 2017 and created a new cross platform (Xamarin) project using PCL. I am using a PC and running windows 10. I created my first "Hello World" app by following a tutorial (which was created in vs 2015) but I could never get the android emulator to work, only get a black screen. There are no build errors but a few warnings. Also, the very simple project takes FOREVER to build. In the tutorial I followed, the project builds in seconds and the emulator pops right up with the app.

Are there some default settings I need to change to make things work?

Curious if maybe I had a bug in my "Hello World" app, I created a new app again and just tried to run the default Main Page - Welcome to Xamarin Forms! app but it took FOREVER to build and also resulted in a black screen. Please help!

Thanks!
