Download and install the Android SDK (http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html)
Start it up, and use it to make an AVD (basically, a "phone" to be emulated) using the options for Android 1.6. Make it, but don't start it up. Close the SDK program.
Download this http://www.4shared.com/file/16562474...ed/system.html Or this http://developer.htc.com/google-io-device.html#s3
Either way, get the system.img file. Place this in C:\Documents and Settings\{Your Directory}\.android\avd\{Your AVD name}.avd\
Turn the SDK back on, start your AVD with the "Wipe User Data" checked (turn this off for all subsequent uses).

I downloaded as written above and installed Android 1.6. When I clicked 'Install' in the open window, it started to install Android 2.2. I thought I had to install 1.6, so I stopped it, and clicked install 1.6 in another window. I think it installed, because it said 'installed' after some time. But I can't find it anywhere. In the download folder is an 'Android 4' folder now (which was not there before installing), with some other folders and some files, so maybe this is it??? But how do I open it??? I got a message that Java was not 'in the path' or something' (whatever that will mean), with the advise to place it there. I have no clue about how to proceed now. I hope someone can help me.
